Meet the First 48 Backers: Tasheka Alexis



Name: Tasheka Alexis

City/State: NY/NY

I choose to back the project because… the only thing I knew about HBCU’s is that my aunts went to Howard and all pledged. I ultimately ended up in school in Boston, partly due to the fact that it was easier to visit schools in the NE…and the belief my mother had that “if it is white, it must be right”.

I hope this project: will allow people (parents and students) to see HBCU’s in a more positive light….not just somewhere to party, pledge and wear heels to class.
