To stand, to kneel, to teach

September 21, 2016September 26, 2016

Many students and NFL players are following in the footsteps of Colin Kaepernick who has chosen to kneel during the national anthem before football games. This should speak loudly to the fact that people are in need of an outlet for their frustrations with our society and the areas of […]

How deeply do culture and community impact schools?

September 26, 2015May 30, 2019

Over the past two weeks I have had the pleasure of hearing from two well-known people from Hollywood that don’t really have an education background and yet their statements regarding education have given me much to think about. My background has been split between studying early education and human services. […]

Policies. Myths. Facts. Baltimore.

We talk about myths and facts in class a lot and how societal perceptions are very often based on myth. A lot of people think white privilege is a myth. It is not. I learned a great deal from one of my favorite professors, Dr. Norma Gaines-Hanks. Amazing woman. I […]

Woman forced to resign after marrying partner of 14 years

Some of us have equality. Some of us do not. This is a true statement even here in the land of the free, the United States. It’s great to say all people should be treated equal and there are so many ways in which this is becoming more and more […]

Snippets From Books I Read

Christy’s quotes


"I followed shortly after, but even a long, hot shower didn’t bring on the sleep I’d really hoped for. Quite simply, I had too much on my mind. So much that it raced from one problem to another, in a vicious cycle that had me tossing and turning in between small bouts of sleep with vivid, strange dreams. I awakened feeling more tired than I had when I’d gone to bed, and that was saying a lot given the day I’d had before."— Jana Deleon

Reposted from @braesbrownbags The 3B Brae's Brown Bags Foundation will officially be 10 years old the summer of 2023. 

And this morning Brae received a package with something pretty freaking fantastic. He, and his lovely girlfriend Grace, opened the first edition books of his 3B journey fighting hunger. 

The 3B story has been published by Clavis Books, written by Dianna Wilson and illustrated by Sara Casilda! The first edition has released in Dutch and will soon be available in many other languages.
