He does this through authentic dialogue, setting high expectations and giving loving support. Quandus, a public school teacher in a black community, instructs young black males. He sees a community lacking fathers, manifesting in the lack motivation to succeed. He meets them where they are and shows them a different perspective through honest conversations, high expectations and support.
