As I read the words our (Oakland Unified School) children put on paper, I began to cry. My tears were joyful tears because of all the passion written in their words.
-Karen B. Todd, Director of Project SOAR II
This fantastic poetry blends language, music, art and soul into a single, sublime composition which captures the distinctive spirit that makes Oakland so wonderfully unique.
-Dr. Kimberly Statham, State Administrator, Oakland Unified School District
This is a wonderful collection of the courageous voices of our youth, sharing the complexity of their lives, the world as they know it, their fears, dreams, and hopes for the world that they will surely impact.
-Emily Brizenndiner, Ed.D., Professor and Interim Dean, College of Education and Allied Studies, CA State University, East Bay, Hayward CA
