This week on Olay & Friends, we get into the real reasons Black men aren’t going to college — beyond the tired talking points and finger-pointing. We break down the economic barriers, the cultural pressures, the failures of our school systems, and the narratives that push Black boys toward work, sports, or survival instead of higher education. We talk policy, community, masculinity, and the structural obstacles nobody wants to name. It’s a conversation about patterns, not blame — and what it will actually take to change them.
