PUBLIC EDUCATION IN AMERICA Community Response FAILURE not ACCEPTABLE How do we participate in the transformation of public education and build a more successful set of educational outcomes ? How do we create real strategies at the local level ? How do we block the illusion of change, and establish workable and success-based solutions for our children? Where do we fulfill our obligatio...n to be part of the solutions? I was surprisingly impressed by The Obama Education tour discussion is a great starting point with Duncan, Gingrich and Sharpton . . . but where are the educational professionals ? What is the responsibilities of community of to all children who attend public schools ? Can we place all the responsibilities and tasks on the shoulders of parents and schools ? I think not.

Talking RACE with HOPE and in COURAGE
Race has infrequently been addressed in this fashion possibly because it removes racism from the territory of crazy, right-wing protesters and delivers the blame to larger institutions like the private health care industry, and the United States government at large. It's one thing to make fun of Rush Limbaugh's ignorance, it's another thing to ask multi-billion dollar industries to change their racist practices, or accuse the entire government of being rotten at the foundation. Such accusations would earn a dissenter the title of "race-baiter," or one who "plays the race card." These kinds of platitudes are usually euphemisms for "You're making me uncomfortable. Don't rile up the black folk. Shut up."
As much as white Americans hate to admit it, we are always talking about race, even when we're not poking fun at Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck. Race and racism will play a huge roll in the health care reform debate, and not just when Joe Wilson is the topic of discussion. Rep. Donna Edwards has said that proposed legislation overhauling health care would likely address racial disparities in education and health among children. Let's hope so. At least then the discussion of race and racism may reap some productive rewards instead of more empty chatter about Joe Wilson's motives.

The Black Voice. Where does it find its place in the public square. Where is the place that is devoted to providing a forum for African Americans, providing information and opportunity to form and bring the opinions of African Americans to the political discourse and policy decision makers? Relevant Empowering and Activist Voice ? Print, TV and Radio?

Psychic trauma is defined as an inescapable event that overwhelms an individual’s existing coping mechanism. The stressors in PTSD could be markedly distressing to anyone and experience intense fear, terror and helplessness. Such gruesome situations experienced as being brutally raped or assaulted; in bloody hand-tohand combat; severely tortured in death camps; continuous bombing; trapped for several days in a deep mining tunnel; and other severe life-threatening situations in life.
