Schools need bold, fearless, and innovative leadership more than ever, but school leaders have been back on their heels for at least the past two years and have allowed others to hijack our narrative, something we ought to be directing. We now find ourselves intimidated by the loudest parents, the most partisan school boards, the most over-the-top media figures, and the most cynical politicians. Sadly, we’ve had to consistently play defense while the heroic work of our teachers, administrators and staff members has been largely ignored and certainly unappreciated. The national teacher shortage should surprise no one. Lack of support, lousy pay, and a casual disregard for the value of our teachers has left current and potential teachers discouraged and uninspired. We need to stand up for our folks, demonstrate boldness, recapture the message, encourage the beaten down, and embolden those who genuinely care about the future of our kids!

The Scarred Child Behind the Mask is about a misunderstood child who suffers from the lack of proper education foundation, injustice at the hands of government,inadequate funding for public school setting especially the suburban vs. urban schools and poor parenting (our children became victims of wrong decisions). As a result, the child is unable to perform at his or her best. Unfortunately, students are defined by their zip code and tax bracket. It does not matter if the person has mental health issues or if the person is an ESL (English as second language) student, a child with behavioral problems, or if the person does not have the proper foundation. Nevertheless, all of them are expected to take the same statewide assessment test prior to their high school graduation. With all of these hardships and the injustices, along with my experiences, the need to write this book in two parts was essential. For each time I came across a disadvantaged child, an inner city kid, a mental health student, an ADHD student that has autism or a child that suffers from trauma was a mirror reflection of who I was at one time. But, with the help of God, counseling, therapeutic services, a support network, determination and perseverance, the child that was once scarred behind the mask can become somebody and prevail and become a contributor in society. In this book, you will find various stories and examples of people who have the "I can do" stories and "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13). The Scarred Child Behind the Mask is my story and the story of many others. We all have a part to play!

The downpour of death and destruction flooding that life path of Black boys makes them prime candidates to be placed on the Endangered People's List. To be young, Black, a male, and muted, is a recipe for living with an emotional and potentially, a mental disorder. Black boys, too often, blinded by frustration, are angry, confused, and disconnected. Like pain, calling attention to illness in the body, A Marginalized Voice draws attention to the harmful practices, and social ills that systemically Many practitioners (parents, educators, program personnel, and health professionals) believe they are providing well-meaning solutions for those struggles faced by Black boys. More often than not, most fail to comprehensively understand the vicious cycle Black boys struggle to escape. A Marginalized Voice uncovers those deleterious practices authored by well-meaning supporters whose actions contribute to the pathology dependence that many Black boys find themselves locked in. The book illuminates the invisible chains of marginalization used to trap Black boys. Reginald Williams' use real-life chronicles to deliver the sobering truth about practices and principles paralyzing Black boys. The narrated stories represent the only empirical data needed to educate those who are miseducated. A Marginalized Voice challenges claimed leaders to step forward and educate themselves on the depth of the complex issues. It pushes leaders to be brazen enough to collaboratively forge forth to facilitate the change needed to impact the lives of Black boys. The abolitionist Frederick Douglass said: "It's easier to build strong children than repair broken men." A Marginalized Voice begins the process of building strong Black boys. It is the start of a conversation that will push for a movement so that the world will see and hear Black Boys Speak.

Inspired by all the wonderful professional teachers who worked tirelessly in creating inspirational learning environments in our schools for the thousands of Copycats, Stickybeaks and Scallywags who enjoyed learning with them so much. I enjoyed learning with them too. As so often was said, “It was more fun than the pictures.” and we all agreed.

New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell's epic fantasy, the Simon Snow trilogy, concludes with Any Way the Wind Blows. In Carry On, Simon Snow and his friends realized that everything they thought they understood about the world might be wrong. And in Wayward Son, they wondered whether everything they understood about themselves might be wrong. Now, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha must decide how to move forward. For Simon, that means choosing whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages — and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had enough. Any Way the Wind Blows takes the gang back to England, back to Watford, and back to their families for their longest and most emotionally wrenching adventure yet. This book is a finale. It tells secrets and answers questions and lays ghosts to rest. The Simon Snow Trilogy was conceived as a book about Chosen One stories; Any Way the Wind Blows is an ending about endings—about catharsis and closure, and how we choose to move on from the traumas and triumphs that try to define us.
