Black History
Your Heritage Of Self-Esteem
Unmistakably the greatest contribution that African American have given to this nation and their heritage throughout history is their inspiring strength and power of high self-esteem.
Against all odds countless black men, woman, and children proved that by having faith, confidence, and mind power no good thing, for too long, can be locked away from you. What was and still remains this golden key to ultimate success in life? The answer is:
“Nothing worthwhile can be achieved without self- esteem, nothing.”
Through this creative, musical multisensory presentation famous black American, past and present are examined as well as their challenges, failures, and successes while students witness their ability to rise above adversity and to always believe in themselves. “Mr. Rudy” Lawson, Multisensory consultant educator/entertainer facilitates this interactive program and masterfully utilizes fun yet unique tools for capturing young peoples attention to listen, learn, and embrace these sound methods for living, through original songs and music which reinforce these concepts and by using Positive Motivational Techniques (P.M.T.) IE. Powerful video presentation, thematic instruction, situation play, visuals, and motivational dialogue, the entire audience can not help
but to look more deeply into the influential and positive impression planted as seeds that black Americans left for youth to harvest and develop their qualities of high self-esteem.
