Indiana's 38th Black Expo Begins July 10th

Indiana's 38th Black Expo begins on July 10th with a renewed emphasis on education. Business roundtables, free health services and concerts will still be available, but the Expo is adding a forum focusing on cultural competence in education. Understanding the cultures and backgrounds of our children is critical for educators, so they can hopefully determine the best way to reach our children. Parents also need to understand the classroom dynamic, as a means to support the educational system. The inner city systems especially are in need of a drastic overhaul, symposium's focusing on cultural differences of our children should be mandated by Superintendents throughout the country.
