The Dreamkeepers "Education, like electricity, needs a conduit, a teacher, through which to transmit its power- i.e., the discovery and continuity of information, knowledge, wisdom, experience, and culture. Through the stories and experiences of eight successful teacher-transmitters, The DreamKeepers keeps hope alive for educating young African Americans."

Questions
1.) This book helped me to recognize that culture... is important but it should be something that brings us together rather than divides us... It didn't matter what these teachers backgrounds were. They were able to meet the needs of the students. I don't know how my view has changed but one thing I do know is that there are no excuses... I can't say that I can't reach a student, I have to find a way. There is no time to give up, I loved how the teachers in this book went out of their way to get to know their students.That's what I want to be able to do.
