Deep Interest

There’s an online challenge of sorts going around right now. Perhaps it’s more of a meme. It looks like this:

Five topics you can talk about for 30 minutes without preparation:

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

Have you seen it? Have you taken a stab at it? In some ways it’s a reminder that each of us has ways in which we could comfortably speak as experts, or, more accurately, with deep interest. 

For me:

1. Early childhood education 

2. Process art

3. How music benefits education 

4. The hilarity of newspaper bloopers, typos, etc.

5. LGBTQ+ acceptance 

Since this is a local blog, I wonder if I could do a local five?

1. What I learned running for the CA Board

2. Getting lost in Columbia

3. Why I love our libraries

4. Creeping segregation and why it matters 

5. The ongoing battles between East and West 

What about you? Can you think about a local topic you could talk about for 30 minutes without advance preparation?

Let me know.
