MidCity Excellence Community Learning Center, a 501c3 non-profit

The "Solutions Summit" Overview

Focus: This show explores how to effectively heal the nation and bridge the gap between the racial divide, discuss solutions to “fix” all systems, including discourse on recent events involving police brutality, discrimination, profiling and a plethora of strategies to eradicate a history of injustices surrounding people of color.

The MidCity Excellence (MCE) Community Learning Center serves as an inner-city, non-profit mission that provides counseling, conflict resolution training, tutoring, performing arts activities (drumline, trash can band, stomp, dance) and acts as a liaison between grassroots families and the SJPD, government and school officials. Since 2001 MCE has engaged over 2,000 urban youth, mostly minority who lack positive role models and father figures, in initiatives that reverse the effects of poverty, juvenile delinquencies, and poor education. We host 7 city-wide events annually to include a gospel and praise dance fest, the Martin Luther King, Jr. Forum and a weekly live show with over 4,000 viewers entitled, the "Solutions Summit" which enhances racial relations, peace talks surrounding racial reconciliation, and addresses conflict resolution strategies to best build bridges with disenfranchises families.

Do a Facebook “Watch Party” for the weekly "Solutions Summit": every Thursday, at 7:30 pm-8:30 pm
