Berea Promise

Chatting over chips about the unparalleled Berea College with my recently graduated nephew,  Avery Fair,  his brother Silas Fair (a sophomore at Berea) and three of their friends:

LaMonika Dent, Robert Emmill, and Yer Mama.  I mean Luke.

At the end of the discussion there is mention of a 2020  Berea graduate named "Aziz".   This article about Aziz is a fascinating read:
