Black Future Leaders

Title: Black Future Leaders
Description: Black Future Leaders was founded in 1985 with the purpose of ensuring high-achieving Black students attended college. Jean Peacock modeled the program after Latino Future Leaders and recruited prominent members such as Lois Carson and Marion Black to create the project. Carson directed the project Upward Bound at UC Riverside before she established Black Future Leaders. California State University, San Bernardino served as the program’s home for several years and took in students from San Bernardino, Eisenhower, and Cajon high schools.
