- Ashanti: a brilliant leader for a vital project!
It’s one thing—and an important thing—to be a brilliant and dedicated male educator. It’s another thing entirely to take up the mantle of helping men join and thrive in this profession. Challenging as that is, no one could be better for this job than Ashanti. His podcast is provocative, wide-ranging, helpful, entertaining, and couldn’t be more important.
