Meet Victoria

My NORTHSTAR is to illuminate the path where OUR stories don’t just survive—they lead.

Whenever Victoria has felt boxed in by systems, by silence, or by the limits placed on Black children—even her own—she has found power and purpose in reclaiming the narrative. That fire led her to build cultural platforms that spark imagination, shift policy, and move people to action.

Victoria is a multi-hyphenate creator—author, creative director, curator, and founder of Liberation Station Bookstore, the first Black-owned children’s bookstore in North Carolina—named one of the most impactful in America by NPR. Her groundbreaking work has been featured on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Good Morning America, CNN, The New York Times, NPR, The Washington Post, Forbes, and Essence.

Victoria Scott-Miller is a mother, entrepreneur, cultural worker, and the founder of The 40 Acre Institute, a radical homeschool rooted in joy, safety, and the brilliance of Black childhood. Her work emerges from lived experience and the pursuit of freedom, reimagining how we nurture and educate the next generation.

From building institutions that honor Black stories to cultivating spaces where children thrive, her journey is both deeply personal and powerfully collective. Along the way, she has been honored to share this vision through Essence, Forbes, NPR, Good Morning America, The New York Times, Washington Post, and more.

I’ve had the honor of headlining The Atlantic Festival and developing national museum programming that has reached millions. I also created The Museum Lives in Me®, a literary and design project that re-imagines how children engage with history and see themselves reflected in public spaces.

I don’t do this work just to be seen—I do it to make room. My mission is to help organizations, institutions, and individuals tap into the stories that matter most—the ones that heal, build, and move us forward.
