Chin Up Little Black Girl

Chin Up Little Black Girl
Inspired by:  My girls (my friend’s twins) who at still a tender age had to face disappointment in spite of their hard work and consistent commitment to excellence.


Chin up little black girl
You're destined to be a queen.
Don't let this world
Make you bitter and mean.
Count your struggles as reps
And let them make you strong,
Position yourself for greater
When they ignore, chastise, and belittle you
Trying to prove you wrong.
Chin up little black girl
you're on a Queen's journey
Not many will understand
Continue to walk in your purpose
It's all in God's plan
Roadblocks, potholes, and curves
you will ensue without forewarn
Respond to it all with grace
This was your destiny before you were born.
Chin up little black girl
Your crowning is at hand
You’ve overcome your obstacles and
Your reign as royalty is here and
it's time to take the stand.

FUNds for College

Here we go!!!!!!! CultivatED Living is on the way.. I want to start it all off by sharing opportunities to earn money to pay for college.

Do Something Good has a campaign out now.  A poster contest...here are the details People of color and people with disabilities are underrepresented in science, tec

Welcome

Welcome! This blog was created to educate, build awareness, bring clarity, and link professionals to what happens in the classroom. While I am no expert in any one area, I do have 22 years of experience in diverse roles in the education system. The expressions of these matters are based on my experiences and do not represent any particular school system. A little about me... My name is LaShona Dickerson, I am a wife and mother of 3 sons. I currently serve as a technology director in Louisiana. I enjoy all activities that allow me to exercise the 5 Cs (Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Content, and Critical Thinking).  I am no writer; however, I am a talker and have a lot to share. I look forward to seeing this blog grow as I refine my skill and help those who are in education purgatory.
