  • Summary

  • Today’s episode is about community engagement and research. As we know, when trying to impact change to create better schools, housing, and community it is necessary to begin with true historical understanding, accurate information, community engagement, and driven leadership. Further, as young people often advise…” You better ask somebody.” Well, today we are asking Alvin Atkinson, a person who has an extensive track record of effective engagement--so much so that he is nationally regarded as expert in university and community collaborations. In this interview, Calvin has a great conversation with Alvin, who discusses his role as the Community Engagement Lead and Associate Director of the Center for the Study of Economic Mobility (CSEM) at Winston-Salem State University. The organization’s mission is to specifically understand the causes of low economic mobility in Forsyth County.
