- Society & Culture
In today’s conversation, I’m joined by my friend Eric Knox from Portland Oregon USA. As a former pastor, Eric noticed how students of color often lacked role models of color within the Portland school system. As a result Eric started the HOLLA Foundation in 2013 with the goal of providing mentors for students of color in response to the lack of representation. Through HOLLA, Eric also started a school for students of color as well. Join us as we talk about the story of HOLLA, why representation matters as well as some basketball.
