We desire to reveal three forms of memories—positive, negative , and family—that lay the foundation for our five impartial minded school leaders. Through stories told by our five school leaders we explore how positive memories shape our participants engagement with students and how participants altered and re-shifted negative experiences to shape their impartial efforts.
