Jotham Nixon is a junior at Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Arkansas majoring in general education.
Jotham is a future educator and later an attorney. He feels the need to place himself in the classroom so young African American males can see a person who looks like them as the teacher.
This honor student volunteers at a local youth center, serves as a peer tutor, is a homecoming intern, and works with the Bless the Mic Series.
Jotham’s parents have kept him grounded and are his source of encouragement.
