We round out the series, "Don't Call Me Karen," with Melissa Scadina, a CLR educator originally from San Jose, California. Melissa has been rolling with Dr. Hollie for over 15 years. Wherever she goes to teach, she has brought CLR with her, including her current stint in Brooklyn. Her story is an actual journey, not only metaphorical. If anybody embodies the spirit and purpose of CLRness, it is Melissa Scadina. Proof is her keen insight and perspective as it applies to the Karen issue. Dr. Hollie will reiterate why the focus on issue in the first place and re-challenge CLR educators to be willing to take on the tough topics for our students' sake and understanding.
