I wanted to thank each and everyone of you for awarding me the Nonso Christian Ugbode Digital Media Fellowship (NCU). As a young black man not even out of his undergraduate studies – truly at the beginning of his career – being awarded the NCU Fellowship is an amazing opportunity that words cannot fully describe. I am overly gracious to Black Public Media, the Ugbode Family, and all of the donors that made this fellowship possible.
