My dad worked three jobs and was a teacher. My mother was a teacher’s aid, making, like, $3 an hour. My father went on to get his master’s and became active in all these minority engineering programs. And my mother started running for public office. All that happened after the kids were adults. But I’m insanely proud of them. Robin Thede Read Quote
