Someone posted this on my facebook newsfeed, and I thought I would share it with you guys. I know we've been focusing on race, gender, and societal pressures but to me the underlying current is each student is an individual with an individual background. This includes culture, family, and personal issues. One thing that a lot of students suffer from is depression. I wanted to share this video that might perhaps help you understand what's going on under the surface with some kids, especially the ones that look like they have it all together. It's kind of long, but worth it.

Add to blog in a sincere and thoughtful manner. You may provide outside links for classmates, photos, music, reflections on class experiences, and more as long as these postings are directly tied to either my posted prompt AND/OR class topics/readings. The language may be informal "blog lingo" as long as your efforts are sincere and well tied to our purpose with the course.

Powerful! thank you for sharing. We should definitely discuss this important topic in class during the next few chapters of Sadowski.
