[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

"So at my daughter's birthday dinner a little girl about 3-4 yrs old saw my daughter walk in the restaurant.

While we are all just enjoying the moment, the little girl runs down to where my daughter was, looks and smiles real big then runs back to her mom and dad.

Shortly after, the daughter come back being carried by her dad and her head is buried in his neck.

The dad taps my daughter on the shoulder and says, 'My daughter thinks you are a real princess and wants to give you a hug.' ☺👑.

My daughter says yes and the little girl gives her the biggest hug. This brought the room to tears and cheers. They take a couple of pics and the little girls waves goodbye with her parents.

That little girl saw just a "princess" not a black one or white one but simply a princess. Kids don't have hate in them; they are taught it."

When I was a building principal, we had a group of boys who were consistently getting office referrals during lunch for aggressive and disruptive behaviors. In the past, these behaviors had led to increasingly severe consequences that did not reduce the negative behaviors (and caused some students to be sent home and to miss instruction). I sat down with the group and we worked together to come up with a plan on what to do during lunch. One of the boys asked if we could start a knitting club, since his Auntie had recently taught him how to knit. Since he was a leader of the group, the other boys agreed. I asked them to come back tomorrow with some ideas of what to knit. The next day one of the boys said that he wanted to knit little hats for the preemies at the hospital, since his little cousin was there and that a nurse mentioned that they had run out of the little hats. The boys knitted daily and we delivered the hats to the hospital. We received many heartfelt thank you notes from families, nurses and doctors (and even an in-person visit with a personal thank you and cookies from a newborn's mom). This group continued to grow as did our ability to create knitted hats for preemies. This became a huge success for the participating students. There was significant improvement in the students’ behavior, attitude, achievement, and attendance. It is so important to think outside of the box for “win-win” solutions. It really isn’t the WHAT you do that is important, it is the WHY you are doing it! Our knitting group become a team, family, and community.

If you have student loan debt, you should know this:

Every single House Republican just voted to overturn President Biden’s student debt forgiveness plan AND retroactively charge you interest on your paused payments.
