Your involvement with TFA is a perfect example of Social Justice. None of you are in this for the money. In fact, no teacher is in it for the money. There are plenty of ways to make way more money. So why are you here? Why are most teachers n their classrooms? Most of us are teaching because we have a "mission." This mission is often one which fits in the Social Justice arena. We want to make a difference in the world. One way to make a dent is to fight ignorance, bigotry, and poverty. The best weapon for this is eduction. Thank you for serving.
