NASA continues to provide Language Access to best reach, include and impact underrepresented communities!

Today we filmed a couple educational segments -en español- that highlight all you need to know about the upcoming Solar eclipses, one partial (Oct. 2023) and another total solar eclipse on April 2024 (last was 2017)

With me: Dr. Douglas Duncan, Marcel Corchado, and Thor Metzinger.

Senderos Profesionales, a signature program I had the honor of directing, was sponsored by Impact on Education, and piloted back on 2017. I got to work with great colleagues.
Career Pathways aimed to provide 4 and 5 grade students with an opportunity to explore many career paths that led them to realize that the only way to do great work is to love what you do, as they explored different career paths to find their true passion. To grow and learn that we all play a significant role in life, family, and society and to embrace the joy of learning and exploring. I learned so much from all these students! Change is the end result of all true learning. Learning never exhausts the mind, for the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them!

CONGRATULATIONS!

NOVEMBER, a time of important cultural celebrations around the world! 🌟💛

It’s a time of transition, and there are many beautiful celebrations that bring out the biggest and brightest traditions around the world.

MEXICO - DIA DE LOS MU***OS
Celebration of life and death that’s unique in the world. Celebrations can be quiet and intimate or loud and festive but always serve to honor deceased loved ones and welcome them back as they reunite with the living, for one day only, to celebrate together.

INDIA - DIWALI
One of the biggest festivals in India, is a festival of lights that marks the start of the Hindu New Year. For five days, the triumph of good over evil is celebrated with huge celebrations, lavish meals, and spectacular firework displays.

THAILAND - LORI KRATHONG
This fall festival is one of the most picturesque and awe-inspiring sights in the world, where small candlelit floats are released into rivers and waterways in a mesmerizing act of exchanging the old for the new.

USA - THANKSGIVING
It has a painful origin, but it has become a time of gratitude, quality time with loved ones, and heaps of harvest and seasonal food.

CAYMAN ISLANDS - PIRATES WEEK
In celebration of the islands’ pirate folklore, the Cayman Islands are transformed into a raucous and family-friendly pirate-themed celebration. A huge bonfire on Cayman Brac sets off this unique festival!

CAMBODIA - BON OM TOUK
One of the biggest celebrations of the year in Cambodia, where people give thanks to the river as an important source of life.

Community Safety and Justice discussion with our DA, Michael Dougherty and other community leaders.

Great work alongside a wonderful team of interpreters. The beauty of interpretation is that we are constantly learning and it always opens up an array of wonderful experiences, and people!

Después de tres décadas viviendo en estas tierras, no ha sido sino hasta ahora cuando veo cómo, poco a poco, van regresando maravillosos representantes de las primeras naciones a llenar todos los espacios para compartir su historia, su voz, su arte, tradiciones, sabiduría y cultura!
Producto del trabajo de muchos, hay que seguir abogando por la equidad y la justicia ❤️

What amazing afternoon at the Dairy with the good people of Boulder and the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes who did an amazing job in sharing very personal stories clearing the history from Fort Chambers to Sand Creek. They opened the space with powerful drumming and prayers.
As always, sharing the craft of interpretation with the amazing Elena Holly Klaver ❤️
