September News
Last week did not go very well because of the flood warning for Tuesday, but we did go to a Human Rights Roundtable and panel that Elizabeth Evans, from the Quaker Meeting House, generously donated tickets for me and 4 teens.
What surprised me was that the kids knew nothing about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights! I explained what it was, how the UN came about, Eleanor Roosevelt and rights that they had at school. I think I went too far with the rights at school because they were asking about ways to get them out of detention and questioning how many rights they are allowed in school:)
Friday we are going to an Anti-War March and Peace Fest event at the court house. This was actually a choice the students made so it should be fun. I will keep you posted though...That is it for now.
