We know it's March but we are giving you one more Black History Month episode because the celebration of Black History Month is a forever thing. This final episode in the series covers so much! A relatively uncut conversation with Philadelphia's own Mr. James. Armond James was born and raised in the Mount Airy section of Philadelphia, and credits his parents for providing him a strong foundation, and teaching him about hard work, respect and the importance of education. Mr. James graduated from Temple University, where he discovered a passion for teaching and politics. Armond revels at the opportunity to build relationships with his student's inside and out of the classroom.
