The first project that Brownsville Think Tank Matters sponsored in conjunction with Professor Greg Donaldson, and in partnership with the City University of New York (CUNY), is:
- Public Speaking for Social Justice, a ten-week after-school program that teaches a diverse population of high-school-age students how to identify social justice issues that are important to their communities; how to research those issues; how to organize their information into discreet and cogent points; and how to deliver their messages effectively in a public forum.
