George Sedberry became a fan of Historically Black Colleges and Universities through African American history. He's not just any fan; he's a fan with, shall we say, a past. So, when and how did he make the life changing transformation that got him known on TikTok and Instagram as "The White George"? George visited "For Our Edification" to tell talk about his turning point in life, his advocacy, how he takes the time for his own growth and development, and the walk across America that he plans to do to bring more awareness to the importance of HBCUs.

About George Sedberry

Social media handle: @thewhitegeorge on TikTok and @thewhitgeorge Instagram

From a small town in Arkansas, George has worn many hats in life, from competitive athlete to former racist to mortgage executive to prison inmate to truck driver to a storyteller obsessed with REAL history--Black American history and the hidden crown jewel of the American higher education, HBCUs. George's journey is to discover the beauty and magnitude of these campuses as well as the men and women who made them such powerhouses of higher education. Even more, George is committed to tell HBCUs' story to people who don’t even know they exist.
