In this 2024 TED talk, educator Jerome Hunter explores how middle school boys can navigate profound biological and emotional changes by mastering three essential pillars: confidence, communication, and community.
Middle school represents a unique period of significant personal growth and biological shifts. Hunter, who founded a middle school for boys, proposes a program designed to redefine masculinity through the 'three Cs': confidence, communication, and community.
