Pioneering rapper MC Lyte talks to Us about ‘leading by example’ and ‘being an inspiration’ as a judge for the ‘Build a Beat Challenge With Ciara’ contest for young coders
The "Build a Beat Challenge" encourages the use of coding to make music and win prizes. It's the latest effort from the organization to help get more Black girls and gender-nonconforming youth involved in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math.
Ciara has partnered with Black Girls Code, a non-profit organization that teaches computer science to Black girls and nonconforming youth, for the “Build a Beat Challenge with Ciara” contest to create opportunities for STEAM education in underrepresented communities.
