> I like Tim's articles. But he has not background or experience in education.
> If people are annoyed that Gruewell left the classroom after a short time,
> then we have to apply the criterion equitably, right?

> I would like to recommend two people:
>
> 1. Heather Hackman. I've seen her blow audiences away. She brings an energy
> and intensity that are engaging, and she knows her stuff. In addition, she
> brings a self-critical perspective, and that is great modeling for NAME
> attendees.
>
> 2. Eddie Moore, Jr. Eddie founded the White Privilege Conference and works
> in a school. He's a leader in the field and a dynamic, energetic speaker.
