Opal Lee and What It Means to Be Free: The True Story of the Grandmother of Juneteenth
Black activist Opal Lee had a vision of Juneteenth as a holiday for everyone. This true story celebrates Black joy and inspires children to see their dreams blossom. Growing up in Texas, Opal knew the history of Juneteenth, but she soon discovered that many Americans had never heard of the holiday. Join Opal on her historic journey to recognize and celebrate 'freedom for all.' Every year, Opal looked forward to the Juneteenth picnic-a drumming, dancing, delicious party. She knew from Granddaddy Zak's stories that Juneteenth celebrated the day the freedom news of President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation finally sailed into Texas in 1865-over two years after the president had declared it! But Opal didn't always see freedom in her Texas town. Then one Juneteenth day when Opal was twelve years old, an angry crowd burned down her brand-new home. This wasn't freedom at all. She had to do something! But could one person's voice make a difference? Could Opal bring about national recognition of Juneteenth? Follow Opal Lee as she fights to improve the future by honoring the past. Through the story of Opal Lee's determination and persistence, children ages 4 to 8 will learn: - all people are created equal - the power of bravery and using your voice for change - the history of Juneteenth, or Freedom Day, and what it means today - no one is free unless everyone is free - fighting for a dream is worth the difficulty experienced along the way Featuring the illustrations of New York Times bestselling illustrator Keturah A. Bobo (I am Enough), Opal Lee and What It Means to Be Free by Alice Faye Duncan celebrates the life and legacy of a modern-day Black leader while sharing a message of hope, unity, joy, and strength.

Organizational Socialization Guide for Baggage, Luggage and Other Containers of Emotion (E03): A sho
This is a rhymed story is about onboarding new hires, told through the innocent eyes of a Suitcase's experience with a new employer. And yes, suitcases have a job to do. What's the story with this Suitcase? Just like all of the characters in our metaphor universe, this is another gender-ethnic-religious neutral metaphor. It's about your everyday goody two shoes, being enthusiastic about 1st day at work. That's when employees are at their peak motivation and their workplace mental health is fully charged. And yet so few employers get this onboarding journey right, transforming workplace wellness into workplace bullying. Our naive little Suitcase dreams of an ideal and textbook Onboarding process... You know, the one that stimulates your process of making sense in new surroundings and help you make new friends. But then, reality hits you in the face like Mike Tyson... Where's the lesson? We are all Suitcases in one way or another - with emotional baggage and luggage accumulated over time. This is the most relatable story ever told - because we have all experienced it personally. So we use this sentiment to illustrate how an ideal onboarding process should look like, relevant both for new hires, hiring managers, as well as your direct manager. Time to rethink how organizational socialization, integration and onboarding employees can be done better.
