About
this issue…
Welcome to our
10th anniversary issue. We are celebrating by giving the newsletter a new
name, Finding Solutions. We feel that this name
reflects the articles we publish. Also this issue is 12 pages, rather than
the normal eight.
We attended a conference in New York City, and had the privilege of
hearing Julia Butterfly Hill speak. We were delighted when she agreed to
write an article for Finding Solutions. She explains why it is so
important that we continue to ask that age-old question WHY.
Joan Dye Gussow returns to this publication and describes her
relationship with KIDS, and the pleasure of watching it grow.
Judy Huynh explains how she put the teacher guide to work in her
classroom. You
will share the excitement of the students as they prepared for their
International Dinner.
Stephanie Kempf, author of the KIDS teacher guide, takes us on a
journey to Russia. We travel with her as she goes through the final stages
of adopting her son and explains the difficult life the Russians lead.
Laura Grabe describes how young people are assaulted daily by
advertising and marketing messages, and the effect this has on them
and society.
Bill Ayres shares with us his thoughts on how young people can make
a difference in the community and world.
Kolleen Bouchane and Leah Goldfine of RESULTS outline the problem
of school fees in developing countries and what you can do to help
eliminate them.
Tim Kasser discusses KIDS and values.
For the first time we’ve reprinted in article from an earlier
newsletter, as we felt it belonged in this special issue.
Enjoy.
