Towanna Freeman spoke with Dominican University associate professor, entrepreneur, public speaker, philanthropist, and author, Dr. Cleamon Moorer. Dr. Moorer is one of the motivational speakers within the Young Black Minds speakers' bureau, and is active in service to his community on both a local and a global scale. 

Dr. Moorer has recently accepted a professorial position at Kettering University in Flint, Michigan, where he once flunked out. He says Flint, MI is considered one of the worst economies in the nation, but that spurs him even more to help his students achieve success. He says people should "Go where the work needs to be done."

Dr. Moorer's non-profit foundation, Dr. C. Moorer and Associates, Inc., provides a scholarship opportunity for students who have read his book and utilized the ideas in it to overcome their own challenges. Scholarship applicants are asked to write an essay about how his book impacted their path to success and promise, and -- once they have reached that success -- their commitment to use their own success to improve the lives of others.
