From Young Braves to Mighty Warriors is my best recollection and story of how we, as a community, a school, and a group of determined and dedicated young men, overcame incredible obstacles and challenges to build a powerful football program that won the Group A Virginia High School League State Championship in 1970 and four consecutive Region C championships in the six short years that I had the privilege of serving as head football coach. This book is also a tribute to the mental toughness and dedication to a common cause of hundreds of young men who proudly wore the orange-and-black for the Chilhowie Warriors from 1966 to 1973.
Deftly weaving anthropology, sociology, psychology, and theories of education, Honoring the Moment in Young Children’s Lives invites us to remake our image of the child and truly appreciate children’s lives as we see through their eyes. Honor the moments you spend with young children with a deeper understanding of their perspective and whole selves and use the unique position of educator to translate children’s moments, both ordinary and extraordinary, for their families and communities. Take the next step in observing and documenting young children and step into the role of researcher, an ethnographer who takes a close-up look and uses that rich knowledge to advocate for children’s rights and needs.

Crossing Boundaries in the Americas, Vietnam, and the Middle East is the personal, yet profoundly political first-person account of one man's unique interracial and interfaith leadership roles over five decades in movements for civil rights, against the Vietnam War, and for Arab-Israeli-Palestinian peace.
