Day 1: Samantha Paige Davis is the Founder & Executive Director of @blackswanacademy an organization that focuses on making youth (middle & high schoolers) active civic leaders in their communities. #BlackSwanAcademy operates in #Southeast #DC with an engaging #afterschool program for #DCyouth by creating a service learning environment. They #create service projects to serve the communities they live in to see actual change in their communities. They recently held a winter clothing drive with @socksmovement and are currently having an "I Have Black Pride" writing contest (submissions close March 2nd), that gives #scholars an opportunity to win $500 and be showcased at a culminating event! BSA also researches policy trends & legislation that directly helps African American families. Looking to volunteer with youth? They're always looking for volunteers for their after school program! Did we mention they have an annual Youth Civic Leadership Summit? This summit is a half day experience for youth to feel empowered in their Black identities. They hear from local leaders, explore numerous career paths, advocate for change in their communities and more!

Like A Girl...Wrestling is not about wins and losses...the sport is about learning how to fail (humility) and start again (resilience)...it’s about consequences for our actions (thinking before we move)...it’s about composure (sportsmanship and socio-emotional development)...it subconsciously teaches balance, agility, and mental toughness, it increases confidence, and provides an outlet for a variety of energies...including the energy to protect oneself from inherent physical dangers... // It is vital that PARENTS provide as many opportunities for children to experience various movement patterns...in the early stages especially, specialization in one activity is a recipe for serious injury...muscles and joints need to be as well-rounded as we wish our children to be...that is WHY WRESTLING is a part of MY family plan... #LikeaGirl #wrestling #youthwrestling #DCTakedownClub #USAWrestling #DCYouth #DCSports #DC #MY #MiltonYatesLifestyle // Questions: See @helen_maroulis @vickivortex @adelinegray all of who are GREAT EXAMPLES of what Wrestling avails in a lifetime...
