JESSE JACKSON WAS AN OMEGA MAN. NOW HIS FRATERNITY IS HELPING CARRY HIS WORK INTO THE NEXT GENERATION.

Something significant happened in Chicago this past weekend.

Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated and the Rainbow PUSH Coalition are building a partnership to continue the work of the late Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr.

And they’re starting with young people.

On October 10, Omega’s Tenth District brought students together at Rainbow PUSH headquarters for a Youth Leadership Conference and STEM Fest.

Students built water filtration systems, explored engineering and discussed civic engagement.

But this was bigger than another fraternity service project.

Just two days earlier, Omega Psi Phi and Rainbow PUSH announced plans for an ongoing partnership honoring Jackson, who joined Omega in 1960 and became one of America’s most recognizable civil rights leaders.

And there’s a real need behind this work.

According to the National Science Board’s 2026 report, only 47% of Black public high school students attended schools offering a full range of math, science and computer science courses, compared with 55% of White students, based on 2020–21 data.

That’s an opportunity gap.

Imagine a young Black boy who’s never met an engineer, never talked with someone working in technology or considered how science could solve problems in his own neighborhood.

Then one Saturday, somebody wearing Omega letters introduces him to an entirely different possibility.

That’s more than a fraternity event.

That’s exposure. That’s mentorship. That’s opportunity.

And there’s a lesson here for all of Black Greek America.

We spend plenty of time celebrating the giants who wore our letters.

But perhaps the greatest way to honor their legacy isn’t another banquet, photograph or anniversary celebration.

Maybe it’s continuing the work they started.

Because our legacy shouldn’t just tell people what we’ve accomplished.

It should create opportunities for those coming behind us.

ARE OUR ORGANIZATIONS DOING ENOUGH TO TURN OUR LEGACY INTO OPPORTUNITY FOR THE NEXT GENERATION?

For a decade, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated’s Gamma Zeta Omega Chapter has helped bring political conversations directly to South Florida communities.

Tonight, that tradition continues.

Congresswoman Frederica Wilson and the chapter are presenting the 10th Annual Pumps, Pearls and Politics Fireside Chat at Florida Memorial University in Miami Gardens.

This year’s discussion features journalist Don Lemon as moderator, with Florida U.S. Senate candidate Angie Nixon and gubernatorial candidate David Jolly scheduled to participate.

The event begins at 5 p.m. Eastern, with a livestream available for virtual attendees.

According to the congressional announcement, the program is intended to provide residents with opportunities to hear from candidates and engage with issues affecting their communities.

Eight Divine Nine organizations are listed among the collaborating partners, alongside several South Florida civic and community organizations.

The event’s significance extends beyond its guest speakers.

Black Greek-letter organizations have long participated in voter education, public service and community leadership. Programs like this demonstrate how those networks can connect residents with elected officials and candidates outside traditional campaign settings.

The organizers describe tonight’s event as nonpartisan. The announced discussion features two candidates, and the release does not establish that every candidate in those races will participate.

BGL QUESTION: Should Divine Nine organizations expand their role in hosting candidate forums and civic conversations, particularly on college campuses?

GOOGLE IS BRINGING AI TRAINING DIRECTLY TO THE YARD.

Today, Morgan State University students are getting hands-on access to something that’s quickly becoming one of the biggest career questions facing college graduates:

How do you actually use AI—not just talk about it?

Morgan State is hosting the Google HBCU RISE Summit today, October 5, at its University Student Center in Baltimore.

The free program is focused on practical AI skills students can use both inside the classroom and as they prepare for careers.

Today’s programming includes an opening keynote and panel discussion, hands-on workshops and breakout sessions, plus a Gemini Lounge where students can explore Google’s AI tools.

And that distinction matters.

College students are entering a workforce where simply having a degree may not be enough. Employers increasingly expect graduates to understand how emerging technology can improve research, communication, productivity and creative work.

For HBCU students, access matters too.

It’s one thing to hear constantly that AI will reshape the workforce.

It’s another thing to put the technology, training and companies building it directly in front of students while they’re still on campus.

The question for HBCUs now isn’t whether AI is coming.

It’s whether our students will simply consume it—or be positioned to build careers with it.

👇🏾 Should every HBCU require students to take an AI literacy course before graduation?
