Blinded grandfather gave granddaughter excellent vision

Nicole,
East Lansing, MI.

My grandfather was blind all my life. All I knew was that there was an accident. It wasn’t until he passed that I learned that the accident involved a white man. My grandfather was a doorman and was pushed into the glass door. My grandfather never spoke of the incident. I’m actually glad that he didn’t because nothing is worse than feeling angry and helpless, especially when you are a child. Instead he taught me his work ethic and to always do my best. Success is the best revenge.

Color-blindness benefits a global vision.

As a US History teacher, my 8th grade students were studying segregation and the Brown V. Board of Ed. ruling. I heard the NPR piece this morning and shared the Atlantic Monthly article on the resegregation of Central High in Tuskaloosa and the Dent family’s experiences from the 50’s until now. I showed my students the Propublica Race Card site, and then challenged my students to write their own six word essay reflecting on the topic of race, education, and our community. They found the challenge of expressing their feelings and experience in 6 words difficult. Asked where they thought Central High would be in another 10 years, they were pretty pessimistic.
