"According to Ana Galan’s artist statement, “The concept depicts the
two contrary principles: masculine and feminine, which are found in an
embrace as a symbol of the partnership, the union and belonging. The
coniferous landscapes represent the power of vital force, of
immortality.” So why wait until retirement to do the things you’ve
always wanted to? Enjoy life today! See more on this project and more
on her website."

What's this blog about?
I teach several courses under the broad topic of "Multicultural Education," prioritizing social justice issues of access, power/privilege, & narrowing the academic achievement gap. I am a person of color and I almost always have a white co-teacher. We include topics, such as: racism, sexism, heterosexism, ableism, ethnocentrism, deculturalization, transforming curriculum, etc. This is a place where I post information that we teach; lesson plans for activities; and resources we use and/or which are shared with me by my adult students.
