Autor

Dr. Elizabeth Grady Branch is a proud mother, grandmother, educator and a faith-based author.

Born into abject poverty in deep East Texas, she graduated from the segregated Fred Douglass High school in Jacksonville. She received a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, from Jarvis Christian College (now University), a Master's from Texas Southern University, and a Doctorate of Education from North Texas State University (now University of North Texas). Her job and career experiences spanned the gamut. Standouts included migrant cotton picker, waitressing, seasonal field worker and other menial jobs to help the family's income. Her career after college included the joys and rewards of becoming a K-College level teacher, administrator, and small business owner. Having been blessed with such a wide range of successful experiences, plus living and thriving thru the part of American history known as "Jim Crow" and the Civil Rights Movement, makes her a highly qualified contender to promote this agenda. It is designed to instill pride, faith, "personal nobility", love, and hope in the youth of color in our country, America.

Her curriculum materials and "old school" wisdom gained from her past are applicable today.
