​​The Emphatic Truth began as a blog during my college years and has grown into a purpose-driven education and media platform focused on serving underrepresented communities. I’m Tavon Harris—a Baltimore native, first-generation college graduate, speaker, facilitator, and founder of The Emphatic Truth. I hold a bachelor's degree in Sociology and have professional experience in technology communications, workforce development, and community-based education. Through storytelling, research-informed insight, and lived experience, I create spaces that help underrepresented communities build sustainable careers, financial confidence, and emotionally grounded lives—while honoring culture, identity, and generational impact.
