Nearly five months ago, Melanie Saravia, a senior at Albemarle High School, and her peers in the school’s Latinx Club said they wanted to make a video that would have an impact on the community. It premiered this past weekend.

Thanks to @CJCville for being a wonderful partner and inspiring this event that will lay the foundation for future action and success for our @AhsLatinx students.
It was snowy outside, but there was a large community inside AHS tonight for “Sí se puede.” I was inspired by the panel of speakers — and “flipped” interpretation for English speakers. Gracias @Rustyc20 & team #ACPSESOL#empowerment#engagement @clcratliff @khhoward31
Peer tutors are collabing with ESOL counselor Ms. Dinwiddie & newcomer specialist Ms. Germino to create a welcome team for transfers! Our newest Patriot is Justin 🇭🇳. We helped schedule, tour & introduce him. Bienvenido a @AlbemarleHigh ! @LeilaniKeys1 @Matthew15783792 @Rustyc20
I visited Montpelier's Mere Distinction of Colour exhibit (https://t.co/wJuTp10YnR) and am looking through Teaching Tolerance's resources (https://t.co/gvoxgRPZuA). Both very useful frames for helping students think critically about enslavement in the US and its enduring legacy
@VaSmith12 Thank you so much! I appreciate it and am thankful to my students and everyone at my school and in the district who have helped make this possible.
