My students are survivors. All of us had our lives upturned by the flood that engulfed our city after Hurricane Katrina. But we've come back and we're working hard to do our part to rebuild our beloved New Orleans. Many of my students have seen things in their young lives that I hope none of will ever have to see. The devastation of their city. Violence in their communities. The indignity of living in poverty in the richest country in the world. The face of raw, real, soul-crushing racism. With all they've seen and lived, my students still come to school every day to learn and grow. They struggle against the conditions of their lives to better themselves and build a brighter future. They inspire me every day.
