our maiden voyage enters the final stage. What a way for the ship to keep going. The chairman, CEO and leader of the club @Kulturemix2⚽️1 stated in a post match interview “I was leading the ship, so I had to lead the ship to the final”. This screamer sent us through.

"though it was terrifying, I didn't let the fear get the better of me, I knew how to pray....so I called on [God] to give us peace of mind" Hearing personal reflections from tropical storms is so powerful for a classroom setting. Today I discovered @CCCproject767.

Today is the day when the winds died down and the sun gently rose to reveal what had happened to Dominica after #HurricaneMaria on the night of September 17th, 2017. From this point, Dominica had to nurture its land and its people on the road to recovery.

#HurricaneMaria hit Dominica in the evening of September 17th, 2017. In one night the island faced a disaster that rivaled its predecessor Hurricane David in August 1979. Create partnered with @cccproject767 for Surviving Storms which studied narratives and storm histories.
