My Students

The school children of New York need you. Be a patriot and help support our rigorous course of American History. Currently we all share a single copy of this excellent book. We love it! We rap it, we sing it, learn about the Age of Jackson. Make a child smile and give what you may.

Our school is inner city, multi-ethnic, and our kids are bright and ambitious.

Let me introduce you to Student Y. She didn't know that our country is a democracy, how she might participate in it or her rights and responsibilities within it. *You* can help change this.

My Project

A class set of US Hip Hop History will motivate, introduce and summarize many of our units of study. You're giving a gift of smiles and civic education.

By helping us get these books you're giving the children a resource that they *want* to learn from, not just have to learn from.

You're giving something intellectually challenging and loads of fun.
