Welcome!
Welcome to this site and to this important endeavor! It is a work in progress!
It is late, for a teacher, I guess, 8:30 pm. A teacher friend of mine said something to me today that rocked my world. He told me that he was looking for a place to teach that was not "poor". It was his next comment that shook me. He said, "This may seem racist..." I was struck by the immediate pivot to poor meaning African American. I will say that he teaches in rural Cherokee County, NC. Can we talk about this at the next meeting. I need help.
