"Teach a student to love learning and you change his life... Teach a student to embrace their gifts and how to pursue their passions and they just might change the world..."

That is the approach Alan Gaines takes with him as he serves youth as a teacher, coach and mentor. With over 15 years of experience working with students deemed by society as at risk or underserved. As a proud servant of this often counted out and discredited population, Gaines has obsessively sought out solutions for the challenges these youth face. His personal quest led him to pen his seminal book on the Black Male experience in America. Flipping The Scripts: How To Reject Society's Narratives And Write Your Own Destiny is not only inspiring youth but also creating an avenue for adults to have the crucial conversations that every young Black Male needs to have on their road to Manhood.
