Would the Dream of Political Equality… : DASH Story 2016-03-17

Story content

When a former colleague approached me about creating a new program for middle school students in one of the schools where I used to work, I decided to devote my free time to a research project to support some of his ideas in order to provide relevant source material and guidance throughout the actualization of our efforts. Though I am only half-way through the process, I have struggled a great deal to find easily accessible material; many of the books I have looked up at the library take weeks or more to get when I request them. Likewise, about half of the books I looked into weren't even available. It was a relief to find this material so readily available to the public, constructed in an easy to use format, provided by an institution I feel I can trust as a valid source and as a primary source. It renewed my sense of vigor for the project and saved me a lot of unnecessary time navigating and bypassing less efficient databases.
