“One of his accomplishments outside of his journalistic career was founding the Chauncy Glover Project, a mentoring program created to help develop “inner-city teenage boys into upstanding and accomplished gentlemen,” its website says. The program focuses on college readiness, etiquette, public speaking, financial responsibility and mental health awareness, among other skills.”

Sadly, it’s also lacking in the suburbs too
