American Wanderlust

I'm a global citizen, educator, and former union leader; with an academic background in the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa. Cities around the world feel like my home. I'm a professional Educator. I believe in Solidarity, wherever I am. Notes from my travels, research, and encounters tend to end up here.
