Bridging the Gap founder, Danita Mason-Hogans
Image from an after school program in 1997 built by Danita Mason-Hogans and board member Bonita Joyce to close to achievement gap between Black and white students.
These young men were among the first African-American undergraduate students to successfully challenge racial segregation at North Carolina's flagship public university. Frasier; his brother, Ralph; and John Lewis Brandon were students at Hillside High School in Durham when they applied to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1955. They were rejected until a federal court judge ordered UNC-Chapel Hill to admit them.
