interview with JANIECE MACKEY
Janiece Mackey is a Colorado native. She is a wife and mother of 4 children. Due to being one of the few African Americans within academic, political, and professional spaces, she created an organization entitled Young Aspiring Americans for Social and Political Activism (YAASPA) to provide a conduit for youth of color to become civically engaged in community and career. Due to her converging interests in education and policy, she is also pursuing a PhD in higher education with emphases in public policy and curriculum and instruction at the University of Denver..
