while most kids at 6-years-old, are in the first grade or elementary school, Joshua Beckford, life as a kid is just the opposite.
At 6, Beckford was the youngest person to ever enrolled at Oxford University and now as 8-year-old has already planed to be a neurosurgeon as well as an astronaut. Beckford, was too advanced for a standard
curriculum and forced to be home-schooled, he has an interest in
Egypt and is now working on a children’s book about the historic nation.
In addition to all of his academic success, the young scholar is the face of a Black Society which works to highlight the obstacles minorities face when
trying to obtain access to the support and services they need.
With
college studies under his belt, a clear idea of his career goals and
the evident drive to keep striving for greatness, it’s no question that
little Beckford has a bright future ahead of him.
