Tonight, December 6, at 7:30 PM ET on the
Education Post Facebook Page we're hosting a Q&A with David Johns, executive director of the
White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for African Americans. As the Obama administration comes to a close, David Johns is coming to answer
your questions about the future of education for Black students.
I know some of you are thinking—that sounds awesome! But, what's a Facebook Q&A and how do I participate? Well, first of all, it is awesome!
