Featured Post: Crossing the Hall: Exposing an American Divide by Lori Wojtowicz
Tumblr media
"About Crossing the Hall: Exposing an American Divide: Lori Wojtowicz has spent her life in classrooms, 35 years teaching and now traveling the country as an educational consultant. She writes not of what she taught, but of what she learned. And the lessons were not easy. Her students provided a microcosm of American society, and she was forced to confront the issue of racism in her classroom, her country, and most significantly in herself. A journey in self reflection, she presents the questions she now believes white Americans must ask of themselves if there is ever to be equity. An unusual pair, Plato and Malcolm X, and all the students served as her guides. She writes because of them.

After all, I graduated Magna Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa taught me the secret handshake. But my real education didn't begin until I began teaching African American Literature to African American students. I write not about what I taught, but of what I learned: the truth of racism in my classroom, my country, and most significantly, in myself. I now work as an educational facilitator with teachers all over the country, waging war against the achievement gap. My newest role is of grandmother. I enjoy family, my pit bulls turned therapy dogs, and riding my horse through the woods. Follow the author on social media: Facebook Fan Page Twitter Read the full article
