Hey everyone. You'll never guess where I am! Guam. Yes, Guam! It's a tiny island in the western pacific, about three hours from Japan, Australia and Hawaii. If you look at a map, it's a dot in the middle of the Pacific. A group of Catholic nuns, some of whom heard a seminar I gave last year at a large educational convention, invited me to speak at some of the schools here. Getting here was arduous to say the least. I flew from Chicago to Salt Lake City, Utah, connected to Tokyo, and from Tokyo f… Continue

I'm sitting in my hotel room in Montgomery Alabama after a long day of speaking. I gave two student presentations today, and a teacher workshop. Usually, by the time evening arrives, I'm exhausted emotionally and physically from having relived my past all day. Tonight it's different. I feel exhilarated, full of hope, energy and excitement. I think it has a lot to do with the school itself that I visited today--MontgomeContinue

For many of you starting college, you're probably heading off to your dorm rooms, accompanied by one or both parents reluctant to see you leave the nest. Or perhaps you're the parent, or maybe even an adult survivor remembering the fear in your belly the day you moved into your dorm for the first time. Or are you an educator worried about a student who's beginning college life and all you can think of is how much thatContinue

Everywhere I look, I see promotions for back to school. While I’m excited about this year’s fall tour, and all the amazing schools I’ll be visiting, helping students, teachers and parents become more aware about bullying and how to deal with it, I also know that it takes more than one determined activist to inspire sustainable change. It requires tapping into the inner-activist in all of us, finding that place inside oContinue

Buy the book!

While other kids were daydreaming about dances, first kisses, and college, Jodee Blanco was just trying to figure out how to get from homeroom to study hall without being taunted or spit upon as she walked through the halls.

This powerful, unforgettable memoir chronicles how one child was shunned-and sometimes physically-abused by her classmates from elementary school through high school.
