We kicked off Part 1 of our Fashion Creation Workshop with an incredible visit from Desyree Nicole at CLR Academy.

Our students had the opportunity to learn directly from a rising designer—exploring how ideas turn into real designs, and how creativity can become a pathway to confidence and future opportunity. The energy in the room was powerful, and this is just the beginning.

Stay tuned for Part 2 as we continue helping our youth bring their visions to life.

Black history is meant to be experienced.

This past Saturday, CLR Academy welcomed back the Black History 101 Mobile Museum as part of our Black History in Motion event. Through the ABC’s of Black History, our students explored powerful stories, artifacts, and lessons that bring history to life.

Partnerships like this help us ensure the next generation not only learns history — but understands the legacy they are a part of.

Developing Minds, Bodies & Futures

Black History isn’t just something we look back on. It’s something we continue. ✊🏾

This is what legacy in motion looks like — mentors showing up, young leaders stepping forward, and a community choosing to invest in its future.

Our history was built by those who refused to accept limits. They organized. They educated. They poured into one another. That same spirit lives here — in these rooms, on these courts, in these conversations.

At CLR Academy and through Washtenaw My Brother’s Keeper, we honor the past by building the future. By teaching. By mentoring. By standing in the gap. By reminding every young person that they come from strength — and they are expected to add to it.

Yesterday’s resilience.
Today’s responsibility.
Tomorrow’s leadership.

This is Black History. And it’s still being written.
