  • Dwight Maxwell Appears on The Reading Circle with Marc Medley
    Mar 12 2026
    Dwight C. Maxwell is an author, published poet, speaker and lecturer of English in the UK’s further education system. He has been in English education for over 25 years, beginning in the USA and moving to the UK in 2005. Dwight put forward innovative and anti-colonial models of education. He is interested in culture as a tool for social change and a pathway to self-awareness and knowledge of self.

    Culture is not ornamental; it is informational infrastructure.
    Adinkra symbols, long used by the Akan people to encode philosophy and moral knowledge, mirror what modern physics now recognizes as error-correcting systems: structures designed to preserve meaning under pressure.

    When culture is removed from education, learning becomes fragile. When culture is restored, learning becomes resilient, adaptive, and self-correcting. This is one of the central arguments in It’s Not Just About Grades; It’s About Culture and why culturally grounded pedagogy is not optional, but essential.

  • True Khepera Appears on The Reading Circle with Marc Medley
    Jun 28 2024
    As an adolescent, and in his early years as an adult, True Khepra was on the wrong path in life. He performed poorly in school, stole cars, and sold drugs. After realizing that his future was doomed if he did not transform his life, he committed himself to furthering his education, becoming a community activist and better example to his children.


    Now, True Khepra is a writer, author, speaker, and certified life coach with a mission to fight for social justice and share the power of personal development. He co-founded an organization called Extended Black Family Movement, wrote for NSPIRE magazine, and co-founded a youth program called “Liberation School”.


    True Khepra has made a lasting impact through his inspiring speeches at various institutions, including the Essex County Youth Correctional Facility, Pride Academy in East Orange, NJ, Hunter's World Mentorship Program, and many more. He has also had the privilege of speaking to a single classroom of students at Howard University Middle School of Mathematics & Science, personally connecting with the next generation of leaders. Now, he is taking his message to the airwaves with his podcast, Raw Success, where he shares his insights and expertise on achieving success and living a fulfilling life. With a passion for uplifting and educating, True Khepra's words have resonated deeply.


    True Khepra's message is rooted in his beliefs that by harnessing the power of the mind and learning to generate and create states of being aligned with our purpose, goals, and intentions, none of us are stuck.

  • Marquita Gammage, Ph. D. Appears on The Reading Circle with Marc Medley
    Feb 10 2024
    Marquita M. Gammage is a Full Professor in the Africana Studies Department at California State University, Northridge (CSUN). She earned her Ph.D. in African American Studies from Temple University. Dr. Gammage's research examines the calculus of media effect on the sustainability of anti-African racist ideologies through the intersection of race, gender, and media. By analyzing current popular media productions (reality TV, television dramas, social media, etc.) paired with an Afrocentric historical and cultural lens, her research demonstrates how the continued misrepresentations of Black womanhood in the media and society, in general, can be predictive of future public policy initiatives that endanger the freedom and liberties of African Americans. Additionally, her research explores racial equity and the academic success of African American students, high-impact practices, and asset-based pedagogy.
