What Digital Elder graduates say about their experience...

"This has the potential of a groundswell movement for reclaiming our youths' potential by connecting with them to motivate and inspire."

"This workshop empowers people to become more than themselves and take responsibility for each other." 

"Before I became a Digital Elder, I was unaware of the media history as it relates to the African American community, and now that I am a Digital Elder, I am technologically savvy, gained literacy in media knowledge, and I have a responsibility to myself, my community and our youth."
