Thanks to the generosity of Kentucky Senator Gerald Neal and his wife, Kathy Cooksie Neal, a group of approximately 77 Whitney M. YOUNG Scholars had the opportunity to see Black Panther on March 3rd. “Gerald and I saw the movie opening weekend and found it to be fantastic,” said Cooksie Neal.”There are so many positive messages in the movie, we decided to help ensure kids who might not be able to afford the movie got the chance to see it.”
The Neals are superheroes in the eyes of the Scholars who expressed their enthusiastic thanks moments before the movie began. Scholars will discuss the significance of the movie and how to carry the positive messages in their own lives at a future Educational Clinic.
