Quote from Adult Dean in Black Teacher
Mr. Brady: I was reviewing Mrs. Anderson's grade book and noticed you all have excellent grades. Has anyone ever suggested you try out for the Knowledge Bowl team? Cory: I got asked to try out for the basketball team. Keisa: Track and field. Dean: Nobody asked me to join any teams. Mr. Brady: I see. Well, I've decided to hold a new round of tryouts so everyone can have the opportunity to earn a spot, and I think you all should consider trying out. Adult Dean: It took most teachers a week to stop calling me "Cory," but Mr. Brady was already letting us know that he sees us. [Mr. Brady nods at Dean] And there it was. The first Black head nod. You just witnessed history, people.
