Coaching for Educational Equality. Among the goals of this program are to "grow a deeper awareness of institutional racism and its effect on learning" and "to interrupt inequity and oppression in your school."

You know, yesterday while I was watching football I ate a bbq chicken sandwich. While I was watching the USC Trojans play last Saturday, I had scungilli with tomato and basil sauce and radiatori pasta. For dinner, I had a green chile buffalo cheeseburger. I guess I'm a racist through and through!

It appears as though Verenice baby has had her fair share of PB&J sandwiches.
