2nd Annual Black Swan Academy Youth Civic Leadership Summit
The Youth Civic Leadership Summit is half day experience provided by The Black Swan Academy for middle and high school students to regain a sense of pride, purpose, and power. The students learn from local leaders, explore careers from all sectors through hands on workshops, aid in a school-based service project, and ultimately discover the leader within them. Here are a few images from this year's summit:

The following series of images is from a workshop on entrepreneurship led by Kezia Williams of The Black Upstart. The students were tasked with producing an iced tea line and marketing it to produce a profit. Judges taste tested the products and a winning team was selected based on flavor, profitability, and other metrics.
