"Black Genius" for is the cumulation of a three-year project that began after Dr. Streeter Corbitt’s search for guided journals specifically for her African-American therapy clients proved to be fruitless. It is a compilation of daily Black facts, affirmations, writing prompts, and questions designed to peak the curiosity of children and lead them to embark upon deeper research about their rich, meaningful history. Proceeds from Black Genius support therapeutic programs for African American families at Ascensions.
