<p>Has your son read How to Be Black by Baratunde Thurston? The reason I ask is the author also struggled with similar questions of where to attend college. He went to an elite private school for high school and also was immersed in Black culture growing up. Ended up at Harvard.</p>
<p>Great recommendation. 
Baratunde Thurston is my classmate, and he was a star during undergrad.</p>
