Shout out Kenny Oyewole 🎉

It’s never business as usual when it comes to our next Alum, Kenny Oyewole! A freshman at NYU Stern School of Business, Kenny serves as Cohort Director of the NYU Stern Student Council, a member of the Publicity and Events Committees, and participates in The Gentlemen of Quality, an inclusive group that focuses on fostering a community of minority men leading excellence on and off campus. This month, he will be traveling with his school to Israel and Palestine to explore intersectionality and inclusiveness, while delving into the narratives of people who live there. Kenny graduated from Curtis High School on Staten Island in 2018 after spending four years as a Global Kids Leader and serving on GK’s Board of Directors.

“Global Kids allowed me to explore my interest in international relations and expanded my knowledge more than I could ever imagine. They saw my potential, crafted me into a purposeful and determined individual, and encouraged me to state my mind on all matters when necessary, ultimately leading me to understand the importance of diversity and inclusivity in all schools, workplaces, and communities.”

BROTHERHOOD WEEK | Here is the full breakdown of the week! We will be hosting Brotherhood Week starting Monday November 5th. Brotherhood week is an annual week long event, which focuses on strengthening brotherhood among GQ members, embracing our accomplishments, and sharing our history with the incoming members.

Mentorship | Going off the theme of unpacking masculinity in our own meetings, we decided to bring the same lesson to our mentees at James Baldwin High school. We facilitated and participated in a mask activity unpacking the adjectives that people see from us vs. the ones that we hide and questioning why we hide parts of ourselves.
