More than 15 years ago I had a 3rd grade Black boy in my all-Black class at an all-Black charter school in an all-Black neighborhood in a city with a population that was nearly half Black.

I attended graduate school at a PWI where I knew nothing of or .m or .pedronoguera. I was not taught in my graduate program how to move this dependent non-reader and non-writer to a self-directed, independent learner in a culturally responsive way. I wasn't given all the tools I needed as a new teacher of little Black boys and girls.

However, I innately knew how to love him, how to be kind to him, and how to respect him. Every year I hang the handmade Christmas ornament he gave me on my Christmas tree . . . more than 15 years later.

How many of you weren't taught in your teacher prep programs how to move students to be independent learners? How many of you weren't given the tools to use to help your students build "intellective capacity"?

See? This work I do is more than just a profession. It is part of my life. I've always been in the equity business. I just know better now. What's your story?
