Bill, 

I love your tea party! As a secondary content literacy specialist, I make use of my access to all content areas by exposing students to Zinn's work, yours, and others from edliberation, NYCORE, etc. I will be delighted to share your work with my pr0-eservice high school teachers in western New York. I would also like to let the listserv know about the Peace Corps administrative position below for a social justice multicultural/global education teacher.
