Holyoke Community College Reflections on Juneteenth
This year has been one of turbulence, where we have seen societal awareness arise for minorities, like Stop Asian Hate which comes in the midst of violent hate crimes against Asian Americans, as well as Columbus Day being changed to Indigenous People’s Day. We have - as a people- have been through traumatic experiences with the pandemic, racial injustices as well as numerous deaths of loved ones through these tragic events. Reflecting on Juneteenth marks the rise of many protests that sparked changing tides in how we speak to one another about racial injustices with targeted minority groups. In celebration of Juneteenth, we honor all those who were tragically lost due to systemic and civil injustices that have plagued this country for years. We commit to honoring those who were under enslavement. While shedding light on the racial cruelty and dehumanization of African Americans.

Want To Teach In Asia?
I do think that an interview is an opportunity for both the potential employer and employee to, in essence, test each other out. Also, when the dreaded question comes, "Do you have any questions for me?" and you do end up asking questions, it does tend to give off an impression that you care and are thinking about the job seriously.

What does “news”mean to you?
Is there something that makes you question why something is referred to by that given name? Have you ever had an interesting fact that while it may seem interesting to you but others might think, “Really”? Cue the eyerolls because I can hear them virtually, but I have an interesting fact about the news that might grasp some people. Ever since I was 10 years old, I always questioned everything or thought everything has multiple meanings or maybe just maybe, how did we call certain things by their name? How far do we question everything until it comes off as a conspiracy theory? Well, I mean I wouldn’t call myself a conspiracy theorist but I will say that I do few things have multiple meanings and I would love to expand my thinking.

There Is No Box
Let’s talk about boxes, particularly ones that do not exist. Somewhere in the collective consciousness of the power-player creatives of theatre, a box of stereotypical conventionality exists. A creative that breaks away from this conventionality is thinking “outside of the box.” But if one must think outside of the box to establish any semblance of creative individualism, why are we allowing the confining box to decide our choices for us in the first place?

Sherrikka Myers
I had the honor of interviewing Sherrikka Myers, the Founder of Every 1 Voice Matters, and I can honestly say that I am so blown away at hearing where Sherrikka came from to the confidence she now has, and how her bravery was not suppressed by anyone on her journey to helping others who suffer with stuttering. As a young child, Sherrikka herself dealt with stuttering, shame, embarrassment and self-esteem issues, but in talking to her today, you would never know! Her personality radiates with confidence, patience, and a true love for what she is doing. Read on as Sherrikka talks about how far her organization has come, with now being booked nationally, creating a book series, a YouTube Series, holding classes and being a certified life coach! Sherrikka is so down to earth and easy to talk to, and through her creativity, she has been able to push forth and create a mascot for her company to help children relate and feel comfortable with working through their difficulties as well.
