I share the eloquent sentiment and words of Frederick Douglass from his address titled "What is July 4th of the Negro?" This episode is important because I have often found myself feeling like an imposter in different settings from school/work to celebrating and/or lack there of Independence Day or other holidays that are labeled American or patriotic. I share with you why you may be feeling like you stand out like a sore thumb and how to properly combat Imposter Syndrome.

Putting people away whether it is Rikers or 2-hour after school (ISS) detention if the process is focused solely on punishment and not rehabilitation outcomes will remain poor and continue to do more harm than good.

The miniseries When They See Us by Ava Duvernay has us once again achieving another level of "wokeness" about details that are oftentimes hidden about injustices. This episode inspired me to explore the process of displacement and gentrification, specifically the black neighborhood that was uprooted by the creation of Central Park.
