Learning Change

In a polarizing and racially divided America, what do children of color learn about themselves before they even go to school? How do they see themselves and is that image only exacerbated by spending twelve years in a public education system that perpetuates negative stereotypes?

He aims to make a difference in this humanizing and very personal portrayal of what it means to be Black in America's schools.

Let’s be honest: most of us think about sex a lot, and we have plenty of unanswered questions: What’s the best way to talk to my partner about what I want? How do I figure out my sexuality?

AUDIO VERSIO NOW AVAILABLE!!! A STORY IS NEVER JUST A STORY!!! There are few things in this world more powerful than a story. A story is a device for changing human minds.
