A project by Michael Batiste, Myles Thompson, Patrick Stone, and Sam Yates in conjunction with the startup Black Overflow. Black Overflow is an organization that wants to bring minorities into the coding field. Our goal was to show the underrepresented youth that coding and design are fields that can an option for a successful career.

Challenge: Encourage the underrepresented 7th-8th graders to seek profession in computer sciences and graphic design by making personal connections and inspiring through commendable actions.

Solution: The solution involved branding the Black Overflow startup to give them a substantial voice and name, present to children at Genesis Promise Academy and create awareness of coding and design fields, and create a hypothetical game that would educate youth about coding.
