A dual enrollment course is making strides in bringing the teachings of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. to under-resourced high schools. The initiative is aimed at filling an educational gap that many students feel exists in their curriculum.

The course was described by one student as "what my school was missing." It offers an in-depth look into the lives and philosophies of these two influential figures in American history, providing a broader perspective on civil rights issues.

The program's success is a testament to the importance of inclusive education and serves as a reminder that every student deserves access to comprehensive learning resources. It also underscores the need for ongoing efforts to ensure that all schools, regardless of their resources, can provide their students with quality education.
