DCMP News Items 1 2 3 4 Celebrate Black History Month During the month of February, people from all around the globe give tribute to prominent African Americans and study their achievements. Don't miss The DCMP accessible video about Harriet Tubman, a slave who had a severe visual impairment that did not stop her from leading thousands of other slaves to their freedom via the Underground Railroad. Also note the achievements of Andrew Foster, a deaf African American who was a missionary to African for over 30 years. President's Day is February 20 You may want to start your review of the wide array of DCMP presidency-themed accessible media with a look at our video biography of Barack Obama. There is also Abraham Lincoln: The Great Emancipator, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, The Modern Presidency: Tools of Power, The White House, and many more! Read Captions Across America For the past six years, hundreds of schools and libraries have participated in RCAA. Don't miss out! Visit our Read Captions Across America Web site for loads of ideas to help in your event planning. Available again is a free RCAA Event Kit consisting of posters, bookmarks, certificates, and a special DVD containing six Dr. Seuss described and captioned titles. Happy Valentine's Day "Love" is the keyword, and these DCMP valentines are for you: 1) Fathering: What It Means To Be A Dad. Interviews with young fathers prove that fathering takes a lot of love, time, and energy; 2) My Puppy. Ensure that your puppy grows up to become a healthy, well-behaved, and much-loved addition to a family; 3) Great Hearts of Courage Series: Elie Wiesel. This Nobel Peace Prize recipient and Holocaust survivor teaches us about love as he defines hate as a disease which has plagued humankind since its beginning; and 4) see a classic love story in Romeo and Juliet.
