| Winston-Salem State University Sophomore Quincey Constant, a pre-biology major, has been named a 2025 Fellow of the prestigious John Lewis Young Leaders Fellowship, sponsored by the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation. Constant, who currently serves as Mister Sophomore, was selected from more than 550 applicants for the cohort, which includes 16 students from public and private universities across the country representing HBCUs and Ivy League institutions. This year’s cohort also includes the program’s first-ever university partnership with WSSU. Through the partnership, WSSU partially funded their fellow in the amount of $5,000. The fellowship equips young leaders to champion human rights and advocate for social change through a year-long, community-driven capstone project. Fellows receive resources and support to ensure their success in the program, including access to comprehensive grassroots organizing workshops, one-on-one mentorship from RFK Human Rights staff, financial support, and access to an extensive network of human rights professionals, peers and program alumni. Mr. Constant’s project will center on human trafficking awareness, designed to educate and empower students on public college campuses. His initiative will focus on recognizing early warning signs, promoting safety strategies, and amplifying the message that human trafficking can impact both women and men. READ MORE |
