Paula Jai Parker spoke to VladTV about going from a mostly white high school to Howard University. She explained that her senior year of high school she switched to a more diverse school, which opened her eyes, but not as much as her experience at Howard. 

During the conversation, Parker spoke about famous actors like Denzel Washington and Phylicia Rashad coming back to Howard to teach. However, she said that Dawn Lewis’ speech at Howard meant the most to her, which you can hear more about above.
