One of the most exciting (or daunting) times in a high school senior's year, is choosing what college he/she will attend. There are so many great choices out there, we would be crazy not to gather some college students to share their experiences with us on their universities. This week we have a college knowledge segment as we talk to Maurice Pugh (aka Mo) from the historic Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia. Mo comes from Sacramento and knows what its like to be far away from home while in such a new environment. Tune in to hear what makes HBCUs great options to study at and what Mo DREAMS of for this year's class of high school grads!  @pv_reese  @MWLAsacramento  @beheardplatform  If you are enjoying the WE DREAM Podcast please SHARE, RATE, & SUBSCRIBE.

For all the listeners out there who are looking to get outdoors a bit more and staring at your screens a bit less, this episode is just what the doctor ordered! Today we have Kyle Murphy the outdoors-man to help us out! Kyle has gained experience in the wilderness by leading river rafting trips, taking hands-on courses, and really just spending a whole lot of time in adventure recreation activities. For those who are beginning to spend more and more time in mother-nature nowadays, Kyle shares some insights and tips that you might want to hear to maximize your next outing. And of course, on the social justice side of things, certain populations haven't always had the time or resources to enjoy the outdoors, so Kyle sheds some light on how that has changed and some uplifting programs.
