Generation NEXT: Terence Johnson-Hart, activist with eye on business

TERENCE JOHNSON HART
TERENCE JOHNSON-HART

“Personally I feel like a shark swimming with fishes;
Seems like everyone wants money, but no one truly knows what ‘rich is’….”
Those lines are from a poem titled “Harsh Realities” written by Terence Johnson-Hart for a publication at his school, the “Harlequin.” The entire poem reflects his depth of perception of the world around him and his willingness to be a part of the solution. Writing is just one of the ways he seeks change.
Beneath his youthful demeanor, infectious smile and dapper appearance, he is bright, strategic and intensely focused on serious subjects. Like,  the perilous situation facing Black males in his community. Terence, 17, impacts his surroundings by being a doer as well as a talker; working to be a catalyst for change—not just in support of his quest for personal excellence, but also for the benefit of those coming after him.
