PhD in Leadership and Change Program alum, Dr. Les Etienne, recently helped to make experiential learning come alive when joining forces with the “Seeds of Fire” Youth Organizing and Leadership Camp at the Highlander Research and Education Center. “Seeds of Fire” brings together a diverse group of Southern Appalachian teen activist/organizers and their adult allies and has served as a vital training center for labor, civil rights, economic and environmental justice organizers for over eight decades.
