The bottom line is that you teachers are heroes—you make more decisions in a day than most executives and manage about 100+ clients a day. And you students, you challenge your teachers to perform at their best and you are still the #1 reason why teachers like teaching at TCHS. https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196872706 2017-10-13 15:56:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196872706 One of the dangers of a single story: “Show a people as one thing and that is what they become.” https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196873387 2017-10-13 15:57:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196873387 Single Story https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196873485 2017-10-13 15:57:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196873485 I'd never heard the saying that "power is like drinking gin on an empty stomach." bthomas28 https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196874069 That is a good metaphor.

Passion for others can lead to empathy, and empathy can break down the barriers that differing experiences, upbringings, religions, races, and social circles create. Someone can not understand me without first knowing me, and I must be willing to give the same to others, a chance to listen and know them. mahern2 https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196874350 2017-10-13 15:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196874350 Pope Francis quote about the power is like gin... made me think of our definition of a Titan, a person of power and influence FOR GOOD. pluedecke https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196874698 2017-10-13 16:00:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196874698 Single story MrsTaillon https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196874747 This is why diversity is so important. The internet and other media helps to connect different cultures and expose people to the realities of those cultures. We have differences, but there are also many similarities. There are things that we can connect and bond over, which also invites us to learn and understand the differences.

This video made me realize the impact of telling “single stories” and the importance for our students to read and learn about people from various cultures. crose18 https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875021 2017-10-13 16:00:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875021 One Story is similar to what Dan said about Headlines tquinn5 https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875197 2017-10-13 16:01:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875197 People, not things, should be at the center of all that we do. blappe https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875373 2017-10-13 16:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875373 Our stories are only as important as we think they are. https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875533 2017-10-13 16:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875533 When we reject the single story, we regain a kind of paradise. https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875781 2017-10-13 16:02:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196875781 Pope video ldollar1 https://padlet.com/mgkennedy/4aakjfq59s1n/wish/196876898 So retell Samaritan story, someone beaten up, “the other” stops to help.
