Dear WinkWorld Readers,
Recently, while working on a project with CO colleagues, I came across this long-forgotten article buried deep in my computer, which was published 10 years ago. For me, it seems relevant today also.
However, one caveat: Do NOT read this unless you read to the end of the article. Another word of caution: The word, hate, is used in this article. Yes, I could soften it, but honestly, these are the exact words, which the teachers (graduate students) used. When you get to the “Mimi” story, those drawings are her family’s historical artifacts. I was particularly honored that she shared these primary sources with us. It was extremely painful for her to relive that part of her life.
I remember this experience, as one of the most powerful classroom experiences I ever had. Thank you again to those who contributed.
