Interview with Derrell Bradford

In this episode of The Invisible Men, Ian and Nique speak with Derrell Bradford, President of 50CAN, about a game-changing federal tax credit bill that could reshape American education. They discuss how the program would allow families—especially low-income ones—to use privately funded scholarships for things like private school tuition, SAT prep, or tutoring. Bradford explores the political divide, pushback from teachers unions, and why some governors may opt out, even if it means losing out on resources. He emphasizes that this isn’t a future idea—it’s already underway, with families across party lines taking part. The episode closes with powerful advice to young people: let others help you, and know that your success fuels more than just your own dreams.
