Color of Excellence

“We can’t keep empowering others if we can’t empower ourselves.” Brittany Gail Thomas Adjunct Professor, Administrator, Trial Advocacy, Public Defender Color of Excellence IG: @TheColorOfExcellence This episode, we received a mighty word from The Color of Excellence founder and Adjunct Professor, Brittany Gail Thomas. BGT reflects on her educational upbringing and seeing the programmatic imbalance within her Chicago high school, why her cousin influenced her career in trial advocacy, and the impact of helping a student fulfill their dreams. “There is so much work to do.” As a Black educator, Professor Thomas shares her thoughts on the “angry Black woman” label, and why attending The Howard University was the best decision she ever made. As an advocate committed to creating a safe space for students to discover who they are, and the impact they can have on the world, BGT speaks on the cost of operating in your light and why The Color of Excellence is an answer to the problem that we have.
