 and Erin Gruwell (Broadway)\n\nTuesday, October 13 at 7:30pm \n	\nA READING 
 & PUBLIC DISCUSSION ON OUR HOPES FOR THE FUTURE OF EDUCATION\n \nNow 
 depicted in a bestselling book and a feature film, the Freedom Writers 
 phenomenon began when Erin Gruwell taught in a classroom where she faced 
 the hopelessness of a community scarred by racial tensions and poverty. 
 Undaunted, she fostered an educational philosophy that promoted diversity, 
 tolerance, and communication. She continues to replicate her success in 
 classrooms around the nation. Teaching Hope shares the stories of Freedom 
 Writer teachers who provide insight into the struggles and triumphs of 
 education in all of its forms.\n\nA teacher in the Pajaro Valley Unified

 development of The Freedom Writers Teacher Institute, co-authored The 
 Freedom Writers Diary Teachers Guide and is a contributor to Teaching Hope.

 the current state of public education. This will be a book reading, signing 
 and public discussion meant to listen to and share stories while building 
 our hope for the future of education.  \n\nTonight, purchase all three
