Actor Jesse Williams was recently featured on GMA3: What You Need to Know for the launch of BeGreat, an online platform he co-founded that will offer virtual courses taught by diverse leaders and innovators across different industries. The goal? To inform and inspire youth with lessons taught by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) they respect and admire. In his interview with GMA3, Jesse called BeGreat “a platform where you can turn your passion into a profession. Where you can not only get information from folks who have achieved success in certain areas, but you can also get information in context.”

BeGreat will deliver an original online series of short episodes featuring lessons that promote personal growth and career development. The content will focus on industries and everyday BIPOC professionals covering business, entertainment, arts, sciences, design, lifestyle, community, government, writing, and music.

Stand Together Ventures Lab (STVL3, LLC), part of the Stand Together community, is partnering with BeGreat because of its potential to inspire generations of BIPOC leaders.
