Upcoming Events:
Counselor’s Corner - Hello, I’m writing this watching the snow fall here on Tuesday (and Thursday). The school is high energy today, for sure. Hopefully all of us make it home safely and in a timely manner today and other snow days.
Since weather is on our minds today, let’s use it for our question: “How do our racial stereotypes play into how we expect different folks to deal with or participate in the weather?” I’m reminded of the TED Talk/Song “Black Men Ski” https://www.ted.com/talks/stew_says_black_men_ski?referrer=playlist-talks_to_help_you_understand_r&language=en; but other stereotypes may be amongst us. One that surfaced in my neighborhood this week was around Latinos in the cold.
