This is #EmancipationPark 147 years later...the descendants of slaves dancing on land bought with blood, sweat, and tears.

Literally.

Happy #Juneteenth2019!
The marathon continues. 💛

💙'd @EntryLevelRebel's @Inc feature of #chess being a big brain benefit for children's minds!

In addition to learning problem-solving techniques, learning how to play chess is also a great self-esteem booster for many of our students! https://t.co/492fp5GcxE
