The blog post is in support of nurse DonQuenick Joppy, whose career and personal life have been upended by an injustice that could happen to any nurse, but especially, to nurses of color. In this era of restorative justice, calling out racism in nursing is not exempt. It is a hard truth, that the history of nursing is filled with injustices to nurses of color.

By: Jim Hambel I would like to dedicate this article to the memory of my maternal grandmother, Bernice Lefkowitz. She passed away before the new year began. I am very fortunate to have known her in my life. Although I didn’t meet her until I was 10, she had a big impact on my life. My parents divorced when I was 10. While I am now a calm person, as a child, I was so angry.

Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

The Best Left-Handed Tennis Players Ever Facing a left-hander at the elite level of tennis is a hell of a challenge, ripping up game plans and forcing the receiver to use their potentially weaker backhand. The southpaw tends to rely on a swinging serve and a bunch of cross-court forehands played with height and topspin. It can take the opponent out of their comfort zone, plus they get to serve out wide to the righty backhand on 3 out of 4 game points.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.
