The Best Of Our Knowledge #1127

Growing up with Dyslexia is no fun at all.  Growing up with Dyslexia and never being diagnosed and getting the proper educational help...that can make school a nightmare. Today on The Best Of Our Knowledge, we’ll meet Sonya Bridges...a teacher who grew up in that situation and is now reaching out to help others.

Then we’ll hear the story of another remarkable woman who is reaching out to bring education and hope to others...Hannah Slocum of the west African country of Liberia.  And we’ll spend an Academic Minute seeing how women in the US are being affected by the foreclosure crisis.
