What's going on everyone, Welcome to another addition of Confessions of a Native Son, I'm your host Mike Steadman. I'm a Marine Corps Veteran, Entrepreneur, and Aspiring author, who enjoys thought provoking and engaging dialogue about race, culture, and business. On this episode, I open up about my passion for studying African-American History, how I've managed to cultivate my passion at the Naval Academy and graduate school at Rutgers Newark, and how I believe today's black youth can benefit from learning more their own history. As always, thanks for sharing your time with and I hope enjoy the show.
