Reverend F.D. Reese was a leader of the Voting Rights Movement in Selma, Alabama. As a teacher and principal, he recognized that his colleagues were viewed with great respect in the city. Could he convince them to risk their jobs--and perhaps their lives--by organizing a teachers-only march to the county courthouse to demand their right to vote? On January 22, 1965, the Black teachers left their classrooms and did just that, with Reverend Reese leading the way. Noted nonfiction authors Sandra Neil Wallace and Rich Wallace conducted the last interviews with Reverend Reese before his death in 2018 and interviewed several teachers and their family members in order to tell this story, which is especially important today.

"Invites readers to examine their habits and practices in order to better prioritize themselves and their happiness. With an understanding of the difficulties that educators face in prioritizing themselves, [the author] provides readers with the skills necessary to shift their thinking and turn self-care into an ongoing, lifelong practice. As such, this book takes readers through the thirty-six weeks of the school year, divided across four sections or seasons--the season of sacrifice, disillusionment, finding balance, and finishing strong. Each of the thirty-six weeks of the school year focuses on a single self-care method, placed there to help the reader best prioritize themselves in that time of the year. Moreover, the book takes these strategies a step further and encourages readers to utilize these tools more generally as a means of bettering their life outside of school. Through this book, readers will find strategies and tools that they will find indispensable in their journey towards becoming their best selves"--Provided by publisher.
