When reality steps up and exceeds the fantasy, it touches the heart and soul. I was deeply moved !
Real ! Modern, updated To Sir, with Love" on steroids!A peek into America's inner cities, cultural diversity at odds with each, fighting for survival. While one person attempts to alter their perspective enough to listen, speak in a way they can hear and relate and teach them to find their own voices, hearts, values and Hope !How to see our differences, while examining our similarities so we can realize that we owe our loyalties to each other as human beings that have more in common, than differences... if we take the time to really examine, this thing called "Life" !
