The Power of Literacy and Storytelling
Bridging the Literacy Gap for Brown Girls and Boys
As a literacy advocate and storyteller, I am truly passionate about the power of stories to transform lives. I have experienced firsthand how much stories can affect people in a profound way and bring us closer together. I provide keynote addresses and workshops focused on the vital importance of reading and developing strong written communication skills. My goal is not only to motivate people to become better readers, writers, speakers, listeners, thinkers, and overall communicators but also to inspire individuals to create their own original works of art that are meaningful and empowering to them.
Diversifying the Landscape of Childhood Literacy
Childhood literacy is a cornerstone of educational success and it has the potential to open new doors for children. With ever-evolving technology, media, and entertainment formats out there today, it is important to recognize that literacy does not only pertain to traditional reading. Finding ways to engage kids in multimedia platforms can be beneficial in creating a more comprehensive and diversified landscape of childhood literacy. Today’s youth are increasingly tech savvy, making interactions with digital media more important than before. Encouraging children to engage in activities such as storytelling or drawing stories on tablets will help them develop better communication skills while exploring new landscapes of learning.
