But throughout elementary school, Holmes never had a teacher who looked like him. It wasn't until seventh grade that he had his first Black male teacher—Mr. In some ways, he was lucky. Teachers of color make a difference, which is why education nonprofit DonorsChoose has teamed up with The Allstate Foundation to support them.

Diversity in teaching helps white students, too. Educational laboratory REL Northwest found that white students with non-white teachers develop better problem-solving and critical thinking skills, expand their range of creativity and social and emotional skills, and increase their sense of civic engagement.
A joint initiative from DonorsChoose and The Allstate Foundation offers individuals and groups opportunities to help bridge racial gaps in the classroom. For one, The Allstate Foundation will match all donations to teachers of color who are using DonorsChoose to crowdfund projects for the first time. DonorsChoose has also partnered with The Allstate Foundation to launch a Racial Justice and Representation category on the site, making it easy for donors to help fund classroom projects focused on increasing diversity in curricula and creating a more inclusive environment.
From buying books written by diverse authors to providing materials for anti-racism education, donors can directly support teachers working toward racial equity. By creating this new category on DonorsChoose, we want to support these students and give voice to their teachers, tapping their frontline wisdom.
You can see those projects here. Jamel Holmes did grow up to become a teacher. He earned a master's degree and now teaches special education for sixth graders at East Bronx Academy for the Future, the same school he attended.
Holmes uses DonorsChoose to help his students get what they need both inside and outside school. He has crowdfunded technology tools for his classroom as well as personal care items for his students. He drives through the Bronx to give school supplies, clothing, laundry essentials and food to kids whose families are in need, and even takes students to get free haircuts. He wants to be a role model students can turn to. Courtesy of Jamel Holmes.

Once a day, Berry said, Castro gave her a bag of chips or crackers or other food to eat.
But everything, including her weekly shower, came at a price. Almost a year after Berry became his prisoner, Castro went on the prowl again just five blocks away from the street where he kidnapped Berry. On the day she was kidnapped, DeJesus and Arlene were heading home from school when they went their separate ways. But instead, Castro drove Gina to his house, where he asked her for help moving a stereo.
Once inside, DeJesus was unnerved by his bizarre behavior, she said. You could go to jail. I kicked him and I bruised him really bad. As Castro overpowered her, DeJesus screamed for help, but the radio in his basement and the radio in the living room were too loud, DeJesus said.
DeJesus said the first time Castro raped her was on May 7, Though she remembers the exact date, DeJesus said she was not comfortable discussing the details of what happened.
