Today was the wrap up of the 2026 WCM Summer Jobs and Reading Roots Literacy programs. The majority of the students who participated were from Horry County, and we were blessed to have two students from Columbia and Spartanburg!

Please watch this video to see highlights of the enriching and empowering activities the students experienced for seven weeks this summer. Students who completed the Employability 101 class received a certificate of completion and a $400 stipend for being in the class.

We'd like to thank all of our sponsors and special guest presenters especially our premium t-shirt sponsors for making this experience possible for all of our students. If you're interested in enrolling your students in next summer's program, please comment "summer jobs" below.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

At the end of 2025, new leadership was appointed to serve as both Executive Director and Principal, bringing a bold vision to transform the climate, culture, and future of the public charter school. The school serves a predominantly Black and Hispanic student population, with approximately 82% of students coming from economically disadvantaged households. Committed to advancing educational equity, the new administration embarked on a comprehensive effort to improve academic outcomes, strengthen school culture, increase family engagement, and ensure that every student has access to the support and opportunities needed to thrive.

The Academy of Hope (AOH) Board of Directors recently approved the relocation of the school to a newer facility in Horry County—a significant step toward strengthening the school's future and creating a safer, more supportive learning environment for its students.

As AOH enters this exciting new chapter, community support is more important than ever. Join us tonight to hear from Dr. Eugene Bellamy, Jr., Executive Director and Principal, as he shares important updates on the Academy's progress, vision for the future, and the many ways the community can partner with us to ensure every student has the opportunity to succeed. Together, we can help build a stronger future for the Academy of Hope and the students it serves.

Two years ago, Cecil and his wife received state approval and funding to build an official Civil Rights Museum in Orangeburg, SC —a lifelong dream that would create a permanent home for preserving local civil rights history and educating future generations. Unfortunately, changes in state funding priorities resulted in the withdrawal of the grant that had been awarded for the project. As a result, Cecil now faces the enormous challenge of raising at least $500,000 to complete the museum.

Joining us this evening is legendary civil rights photographer Cecil Williams to talk about what happened to the funding, what challenges are working against the completion of the project, and how the community can help.

The history of The Buffalo Soldiers emcompasses bravery that refused to be erased.

This week on WCM Live, Ms. Brenda Bankhead and Mr. orton Bellamy bring out the legacy of a pivotal part of Military Accomplishments of Black Soldiers during and after the Civil War, which were never adequately recorded in American History so future generations could know their worth.

Join us this Tuesday for a discussion on why and how some of the families of these Buffalo Soldiers were recognized as a tribute to those soldiers whose shoulders we stand upon.
