Hosted By: Raices del Saber Xinachtli Community School In-Lak'ech Ala K'in: "Tu eres mi otro yo," I am you; you are me.
A Mayan term that explains how the "other" is me and I am the "other" simultaneously. As I care for them, I care for myself.
I am you; you are me." On the National Day of Racial Healing, it is time to reflect on our shared values and create collaboration, reflecting ourselves on the "others." We placed students in front of each other and asked them to identify similarities and differences.
At Raíces, we believe that a different world is possible, and we must open our hearts to recognize ourselves in the other. We understand these values and practice them daily at school. EQUALITY, RESPECT, DIFFERENCE, DIVERSITY, SOLIDARITY, UNDERSTANDING, FREEDOM, JUSTICE.
