      <image:title>Blog - Stories From The Empty Space - Harriet Jacobs</image:title>
      <image:caption>Harriet Jacobs was born in 1813, in North Carolina and into slavery. She witnessed and experienced many tragedies in her life, oppressed by white enslavers and a system whose laws permitted inhumane treatment of people who were enslaved because of their color of their skin. Despite the threats to her humanity, she seized upon her right to liberation when she escaped to New York in 1842. She published her autobiography in 1861 under the pseudonym, Linda Brent.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Creating a Safe Haven: Addressing the Negative Impact of Adultification on Black Children in Schools</image:title>
      <image:caption>Context: Being a teacher was my favorite thing to do and to be. I proudly taught solely in Black-density public and public charter schools in the city of Milwaukee for over fifteen years…probably a little more, but I just stopped counting. I had the great pleasure of having my name written in the same chapter with a bunch of really amazing young people and now adults in our great city. I’m flexing on you when I say that I am still in touch with a great many of them. I am approached often in these city streets and to the great annoyance of my daughter, by adults who fold and morph into the age they were when they were in my class, faces filled with joy because they ran into, let them tell it, their “favorite teacher.” While I don’t remember all the names, and I vaguely remember their faces, I know the era that I was their teacher by the name they call me. What can I say? My last name is in a constant state of evolution. And no matter when and where I was approached, I am never concerned or afraid because I know and they know that I cared very deeply for them. My storming stages in public education rarely had anything to do with the students. It was always the adults. I quit teaching in public schools in June 2020.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I share this tender time with my little cousin, Haven, because one day, as I was rounding the corner to her school, preparing to hop out, open the door, and escort her into the building like the princess she is, I got a download. “In order to improve the lives of Black children, you must control them.” This voice was so distinct and loud in my head and so foreign to my teaching experience (I completely surrendered my ultimate need for control when I found myself a teacher to 25 3rd-5th grade gifted and talented students at Young Leaders Academy…it was impossible) that I had to shake my head to try to settle my thoughts. After much rumination, I understood as I approached this other Black density school where my little cousin attended, what I heard was the mindset of this system. And make no mistake, it is harmful and violent and absolutely must change! The error is thinking that the lives of Black children need to be improved, first of all.</image:caption>

She is a proud alum of Howard University and remains #bisonproud even as she obtained a Masters in Public Administration from the University of Delaware and a Ph.D. in Urban Education from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee. Her organization has been nominated as Best Place to Work for Social Justice by the Shepherd Express in 2021 and 2022.  She was selected as a winner for the Milwaukee Business Journal's Diversity in Business Awards in 2022.
