 * "In Jazzistry, race was neither ignored nor over emphasized. The performers, by their very presence and the stories they told, subtly but assuredly represented jazz and America itself in all of its racial, musical, geographical and historical diversity… Multi-media, multi-racial and interdisciplinary lessons are at the core of excellent education." - nic found this on jazzistry.com**

//I was born into a family of 24 children including me and 3 mothers snd 1 father. Kids outside ofhome think we are weird and make fun of us for it. Us children are accepting of our circumstances and arent afraid to show that our family is ok with being diverse. I mean its like our family had kids earier than normal. none of us want to do that however and we dont want to be married to more than one person at a time or have children too early. Our family wishes there were more accepting communities of diverse families and races.//
