from Bridging Philly · host Audacy

The experience of traveling to a different part of the world can be life-changing, but many people don’t get that opportunity because of the cost. A new initiative called Invest in Human Potential aims to take five young Black men from Philadelphia on a two-week trip to Sardinia, Italy, and empower them with the skills to become social justice warriors over the course of a year-long fellowship. Racquel Williams talks with the director, Amir Joshua Palmer, about what the fellowship will involve and what it will take to get it off the ground.Learn more about how you can support the fellowship at investinhumanpotential.com.And on Shara in the City, Shara Dae Howard discovers a hidden sanctuary in West Philly to learn about Black birding.
