	Dear Family, Please support EMA in it's effort to support schools and communities bridge the gap in communications that has prevented our children from reaching their highest potential due to the lack of cooperation between the �stakeholders�. Share this article with parent, friends, teachers, PTA, PTO and others in your area and neighboring communities that teach African American children. We can make a difference in the cultural dynamics of our schools. Tagged by Dr. Okpara Nosakhere on 02/01/2009
