I’ve been aware of racism since I was reared in the South. From 1967-68 I taught English in New Orleans at an all-Black, inner-city school. I learned how my White preferences gave me many opportunities that my students and staff had not experienced. My book, Bridging the Mississippi, is based on that inner-city experience and the adaptations I needed to embrace my first year of teaching, being newly married, and crossing color lines. The staff and students taught me ways to cross cultural lines. They held my hand and showed me how “to make do”. The Black community taught me their perspective and motivated me how to embrace change. Those lessons motivate me over fifty years later. I re-enter the blogging world, seeking readers of all cultures, who also regard concern for equality. My blog will showcase perspective and raise our cultural awareness. Join me in becoming a voice to help unlock the invisible chains still on our Black brothers and sisters. Let’s hold hands and dismantle racism together. Come along with me on my spiritual journey and share your knowledge in how to live through a constant changing world. Remember, it only takes one person to affect one other person, who reaches out to another person to start the ripple effect. Will you be that person?
