have sprung up in response to the 9/11 events?
I’m looking into what alternatives are out there beyond the Red Cross
and the Sept. 11th fund, but mostly 1) why there was a need for
alternatives, and 2) what the focus of these other charities is that the two
major channels are apparently not addressing.
I am basically guided by the question of whether the 2 most highlighted
charities are discriminating against and/or ignoring the working-class and/or
undocumented victims’ families…

Teachers need to become warriors against
certainty ...
We need to teach dangerously, but to live
with optimism.
We need to be outrageous, but to temper
our outrage with
love and compassion. -
