Drones, Genealogy and Legacy: Shellie Baxter's Mission

In this episode of the Pilots of the Caribbean Podcast, we are joined by Shellie Baxter, CEO and founder of Our Genetic Legacy, a nonprofit organization focused on publishing histories of Afro-indigenous populations beyond enslavement and trauma through workforce development and youth empowerment. Shellie shares her journey from being a stay-at-home mom to founding a nonprofit that uses drones and genetic genealogy to map historical sites, identify unmarked graves, as well as the creation of their virtual museum. She also discusses how the nonprofit integrates drone technology into educational programs for underrepresented youth, and her recent expansion into underwater archaeology. Listen in to learn about the impactful work Our Genetic Legacy is doing in preserving cultural history and empowering youth through advanced technology.Virtual Museum: https://www.ourgeneticlegacy.org/virtual-museumContact:https://www.ourgeneticlegacy.org/[email protected]://www.facebook.com/OurGeneticLegacyhttps://www.instagram.com/ourgeneticlegacyhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/our-genetic-legacy/posts/?feedView=allhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/shellie-baxter/Get the Drone Pilot Checklist!The Pilots of the Caribbean Podcast recommends the Pilot Institute - Part 107 Made Easy course for anyone looking to prepare to sit the part 107 exam and become a licensed commercial drone operator.Website: https://pilotsofthecaribbeanpod.comEmail: [email protected] our links: https://linktr.ee/pilotsofthecaribbeanpod* Affiliate disclaimer: some of the above links maybe affiliate links, which may generate a sales commission.*
