Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eboni Boykin
In general I think it is  for this article to be anything but a stub, and I agree that the short film (for which she was added to the Women In Red redlist) is not notable. So I see the arguments for deletion. However, I think the multiple news articles fulfill : "multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." There are several more articles not cited in the entry, such as https://www.stltoday.com/news/local/education/normandy-grad-at-ivy-league-inspires-mother-to-complete-ged/article_c3bf70a6-7b5e-5180-b390-c7e6d4fd6784.html this one about helping her mother get her GED. I kept things short to stick to the encyclopedic details, but perhaps the article should say more about why her success was notable? (e.g., homeless during school, first in her family to graduate high school, but scored highest on the ACT in the school's history, almost average the double score, and got a full scholarship to an Ivy League university, from which she then successfully graduated.) And/or perhaps it should cite https://diverseeducation.com/article/112990/ this 2018 article which takes her story as an example of cultural narratives about high-achieving disadvantaged Black students? I especially think the fact that multiple follow-up articles continued to be published between 2012 and 2016 indicates that this is not just , and that she meets the basic notability criteria. I acknowledge that the article isn't much right now, but I think there's no harm in having a simple stub for now that may grow over time
