ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar

This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar

This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)

bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture
POPULARCROWDPop Artist Adam Exelbierd Makes a Local SplashBy Stephanie Beliles photography courtesy of Adam Exelbierd

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

ldquoLiving Fully Without BoundariesrdquoEcclesiastes 3 1-3 7-8
1 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip3 A time to kill and a time to heal a time to tear down and a time to build 7 A time to tear and a time to mend a time to be silent and a time to speak8 A time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a time for peace
Last month I also wrote on the concept of ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo as I wrote on the loss of three friends whose lives inspired us and showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living loving and giving
Luis Aguilar Gene Carlisle and David Richardson were men who died before their time but while they lived among us they ldquolived fully without boundariesrdquo I took the phrase ldquoliving without boundariesrdquo from my daughterrsquos Facebook post written to Luis
The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar
Love Mckendree
This past month Memphis lost one of its great statesman a survivor of a different nature a man born in such a time when society demanded that African-Americans live in a world of nothing but ldquoboundariesrdquo Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey was born in Memphis in 1941 received his childhood education from Booker T Washington and graduated from Yale University Law School in 1967
He attended college as the United States of America was battling for its soul the Declaration of Independence declared that all men were created equal by God but the country and the authors of the Declaration of Independence were bound by the conventions of their day and limited the application of equality to a certain class of man It would take a Second Revolution nearly two hundred years after our great countryrsquos founding to begin the process of equality being granted to all its citizens D lsquoArmy Bailey was one of the many that stood up to lead the fight of Americarsquos Second Revolution he lived his life battling for equality He served in government and in the private sector but all his efforts were to secure the success of the Second Revolution He was a statesman because the anger that helped motivate him in the early years gave way as the Revolution was starting to take hold across the nation He became a friend and partner with all who embraced building our nation on equality
My conversations with Judge Bailey were often at charity functions benefitting the less fortunate of Memphis I worked more with his wife Adrienne Bailey who is the CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mid-South She has been kind enough to review my letters when I have written about sensitive race topics I would dare say that Judge Bailey and I seldom voted the same way not because we didnrsquot want the same outcome but because we differed on the best method of achieving those outcomes It did not keep the two of us from having great conversations on how to work to improve all aspects of life in Memphis He by no means was a close friend of mine which only made me appreciate all the more his kindness towards me and the efforts of 4Memphis I will miss how he challenged my thinking on how to encourage and build Memphis in the pages of 4Memphis
Judge D lsquoArmy Bailey a man born to a world of ldquoboundariesrdquo refused to live by those boundaries His life was a picture of how the third chapter of Ecclesiastes laid out that each of us would live through seasons of our lives it calls each of us to rise up and ldquolive our lives without boundariesrdquo for the sake of Memphis

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

By Stephanie Beliles | Photography by Trey Clark
Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture
POPULARCROWDPop Artist Adam Exelbierd Makes a Local SplashBy Stephanie Beliles photography courtesy of Adam Exelbierd

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

On July 18th roughly 70 pop artists from around the globe gathered to collaborate on a project called ldquoPaint Memphisrdquo Their mediums were cans of spray paint and the flood wall adjacent to the proposed Chelsea Greenline At the entryway of the 3 mile stretch of graffiti art local artist Adam Exelbierd painted his representation of his hometown dubbed ldquoGrizzle Wigglyrdquo a grit and grind mashup of Memphis Grizzliesrsquo ldquoGrizzrdquo meets the old-school image of Piggly Wiggly Adamrsquos chunk of the wall perfectly exemplifies his style of expression colorful simple and splashy Fan or not this art form is becoming rapidly prevalent on home walls and building sides and Memphians are going to see more of Adamrsquos work and the like out and about in the city
Adam was first inspired the way many artists are inspired by playing the role of a jilted man in scorn The breakup with a girlfriend five years ago necessitated fulfilling ways to occupy his time and Adam experimented with everything from painting to weightlifting and even trampoline acrobatics (he is a five year member of the trampoline-dunking Elvis team at Grizzliesrsquo games) However it was local artist Lisa Dick who inspired Adam to take to the paintbrush for heartbreak therapy Adamrsquos art is not moody or dark it does not leave much up for interpretation or tries to evoke serious thinking ldquoIrsquom inspired by popular icons and just what makes people happy and smile you knowrdquo And Adam has plenty of reasons to smile
Adam got his big break when he did a portrait of Craig Sager a TNT NBA commentator right after he was diagnosed with cancer His plan was to have a fan hold it up in the stands of FedEx Forum and perhaps he would score some air time Touched by the painting TNT decided to feature Adam and his piece in a live interview before the game and he enjoyed immediate and overwhelming popularity
Now Adam is most famous for featuring Memphis icons including Grizzly players In fact his work has garnered attention from players themselves Beno Ulrich Mike Miller and Quincy Pondexter all own their portraits by Adam But you do not have to have an NBA income for his pieces which range from $200 to about $600 Charities also hire Adam to paint live at their fundraisers and then auction his pieces later something he relishes doing
With this art movement on the rise Adam excitedly anticipates seeing pop art and graffiti art continue to prosper in Memphis You can check out his work on artbyexelbierdcom and even commission your own piece of pop culture

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

Dr Mary McDonald walked into Bishop Terry Steibrsquos office seventeen years ago thinking she was segueing into retirement After all she had spent thirty-six years as a teacher and principal in the Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Memphis and while she did not know what a superintendent actually did she figured she would be able to relax in her new position However the moment she sat down Bishop Steib burst his new Superintendent of Catholic Schoolsrsquo retirement bubble Ambitious as ever Bishop Steib wanted Mary McDonald to fight the uphill battle of closed catholic schools and reopen them a mammoth task Disheartened and admittedly upset she went to the nearby chapel and offered a seemingly angry prayer ldquoI asked God why he gave me a job that I felt I could never do I wasnrsquot prepared for it I looked at the crucifix in that chapel and told Jesus with his outstretched arms that those were the truer arms and hands of help Not minerdquo Months later at a convention in California Dr McDonald attended mass and was blown away by what she saw above the alter a crucifix showing Jesus with no arms After the service she asked he priest why the crucifix was broken He replied ldquoYes this beautiful antique was actually to be restored but the nuns stopped me They say itrsquos a reminder that we are the arms and hands that minister in the name of Jesusrdquo Chilled by the message God sent her Dr McDonald received that memo loudly and clearly She started immediately on a task that has since taken shape as Dr McDonaldrsquos singular mission as an educator Christian and Crusader for Catholic education
It is nothing short of a miracle that Dr McDonald and Bishop Steib found such willing investors for their endeavors The donors are not Catholic but simply Memphians who wanted to see a change in the broken education system They wanted to see a Catholic system offered to more inner city children ldquoEven though there were valiant efforts made by the city and with optional programming our children were falling further and further behindrdquo remembers Dr McDonald Catholic schools have a great educational reputation and these anonymous donors wanted to capitalize on the catholic school method Therefore McDonald crafted a business plan (something she previously never had any experience doing) and the doors to St Augustine on Kerr near Elvis Presley Boulevard reopened its doors after being closed for four years The model McDonald and her team crafted was adding two grades onto the lower school after each year The notion was such a success that investors and other locals wanted to see more previously closed catholic schools come to life again ldquoThey asked me lsquoHow many more schools are closedrsquo and I said lsquoOh about sixrsquo Then they asked me to reopen them allrdquo So they kept slowly yet surely sticking to the strategy of one school and one grade at a time making sure that students and parents understood the differences between catholic
education and public education ldquoA small percentage of our students are Catholic That isnrsquot the point These people believe in the power of what a Catholic school providesrdquo In fact a study by the University of Notre Dame did a Catholic School Advantage study and discovered the following
bull The achievement gap is smaller in faith-based schools (Jeynes 2007 Marks amp Lee 1989)
bull Students in Catholic and other private schools demonstrate higher academic achievement than students from similar backgrounds in public schools (Coleman amp Hoffer 1987 Coleman Hoffer amp Kilgore 1982 Greeley 1982 Sander 1996)
bull Latino and African American students who attend Catholic schools are more likely to graduate from high school and more likely to graduate from college than their public school peers (Benson Yeager Guerra amp Manno 1986 Evans amp Schwab 1995 Neal 1997 Sander amp Krautman 1995)
Jubilee Catholic Schools Network
24 4Memphis
bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)

The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

bull The ldquomultiply disadvantagedrdquo benefit most from Catholic schools (Evans amp Schwab 1995 Greeley 1982 Neal 1997)
bull Social class effects on educational achievement are significantly lessened in Catholic schools (Bryk Lee amp Holland 1993 Greeley 1982)
bull The poorer and more at-risk a student is the greater the relative achievement gains in Catholic schools (York 1996)
bull Graduates of Catholic high schools are more likely to vote than public school graduates (Dee 2005)
bull Graduates of Catholic schools are likely to earn higher wages than public school graduates (Hoxby 1994 Neal 1997)
bull Catholic schools tend to produce graduates who are more civically engaged more tolerant for diverse views and more committed to service as adults (Campbell 2001 Greeley amp Rossi 1966 Greene 1998 Wolf Greene Kleitz amp Thalhammer 2001)
Data courtesy of 2015 University of Notre Dame - Alliance for Catholic Education
The schools dubbed Jubilee Schools as they opened in the Jubilee Year 2000 have since added an additional two schools making eight Jubilee Schools in the city of Memphis Every student has a (very modest) tuition based on their families capabilities thus making everyone involved held to a degree of accountability The students want to be in school and their parents are involved in their education Nikki Tubbs Director of Development at the Jubilee Catholic Schools Network shares numerous accounts of the triumphs of these students For example a little boy named Oscar is Latino and his mother does not speak English Oscarrsquos teacher at Resurrection does not speak Spanish However Oscarrsquos mother and teacher communicate nearly every day via text because his teacher tirelessly uses an online translator to fill in Oscarrsquos mother on his progression (and this is a common practice in Jubilee Schools) This kind of accountability is why Jubilee School graduate Xavier Greer graduated from MUS this year and acted as President of the Student Government He will be attending UT Knoxville this fall Other Jubilee graduate Selena Foster was the Valedictorian at Immaculate Conception this past year and her Salutatorian was former Jubilee student Marnique Turner Nikki notes with pride that ldquoall Jubilee students are above the national percentile in Reading Language and Math as of the new data we received from final testing last year Also Jubilee kindergarteners are at the 92nd national percentile in Readingrdquo Most graduates
from the Jubilee Schools go to Catholic high schools whether it is Memphis Catholic their feeder program or another school that offers scholarship
This summer meant another landmark for Jubilee Schools Network The University of Memphis did a research study for the Jubilee Schools to keep their mission in check What they discovered is that while the students are progressing at an above-average rate they like other students in the US are losing some skillsets during the summer Kids that are not intellectually stimulated by a learning curriculum reading etc become academically rusty By the time the next school year comes around the students spend a significant amount of time relearning and catching up ldquoFor children who live in poverty or in under-served areas of the country sometimes this loss is even more prevalentrdquo notes Dr McDonald Often times single parent and under-served families are unable to challenge their youngsters due to time and money constraints during the summer Historically speaking a summer break for school children was necessitated by a need for extra harvesting hands during a time where nearly everyone was a farmer of some kind Now starting this year the Jubilee Schools are successfully challenging that archaic concept by starting school back in July and making their roughly 1400 students better prepared for their next school year The year-round calendar was well received by families and students and will allow the students to continue in surpassing the averages Jubilee Schools Network President David Hill says ldquoWe set a high bar for excellence and our intention is to support teachers and principals as well as students in holding themselves accountable for resultsrdquo
The Jubilee Schools are taking a systematic and extremely successful model countrywide with Dr McDonald visiting city after city and familiarizing the cities with a similar infrastructure called ldquoThe Memphis Modelrdquo in order to reopen Catholic Schools everywhere Ever faith-driven she found herself at a point where she doubted one of the last schoolrsquos ability to reopen so she gave a frantic call out to God ldquoI wasnrsquot feeling positive about the school and the expectations we had set for itrdquo she recalls Shortly thereafter she went up to the schoolrsquos attic to access stored furniture and came across a huge crucifix and this one also had Jesus missing his arms Messaged again received she has since never doubted her missionrsquos ability to succeed Due to their dedication to the students of Memphis and the well-being of children and their education across the country Jubilee Schools Network is the well-deserving recipient of the Memphis Love Challenge this month However they need help and generosity from people like you in order to keep their doors open and the hearts of the young children hopeful Please send in a donation in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope and learn more t Jubileeschoolsorg

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

The passive act of ldquolistening to musicrdquo is often not passive at all Music has the power to motivate inspire action soothe a wounded soul The music of Elvis and BB King bridged races and generations Notice the songs that the presidential candidates play at their political rallies while on the campaign trail Music even helped to heal our city with the first Memphis in May MusicFest held during a time of turmoil in our history And for couples falling in love a special song can carry them from prom night to a dance at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration Hope action and love set to a tune and a few chords
For thousands of cancer patients and their loved ones just such a song has meant encouragement and has also been a call to action That song is Martina McBridersquos ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo The song has become a rallying cry for patients undergoing treatment for cancer survivors and for the ones loving them through it With the power of music and love in the hearts of her fans the Team Martina movement was born and is ldquomaking the world better through volunteerism and the healing power of musicrdquo
When the song was released four years ago fans found comfort as well as inspiration in the message she sang During the first year of the song hitting the airwaves members of her fan clubs across the US began volunteering at their local hospitals They donated money and gifts and they also donated something even more important their time These volunteers sat with patients as they took long chemo treatments simply being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo
And from those individual efforts the collective Team Martina was born ldquoItrsquos very inspiring when I realize how giving my fans are and what big hearts they have The healing power of music can make the world a better place and theyrsquore really out there doing thatrdquo Martina reflected on the organization bearing her name
Rather than the songrsquos impact diminishing since the initial release the dedication of her fans and the influence of the music has continued to grow The Team Martina volunteer and fundraising movement has expanded beyond cancer to include hunger homelessness and poverty ldquoEven when you donrsquot have money to give you have love to giverdquo says Sheila Jones Executive Director of Team Martina
Projects across the the country have been organized by the fan-volunteers including raising $30000 for a playground and green space for kids at Chastain Park in Atlanta raising $50000 to begin a music program for abused and neglected children living at Covenant HouseLa Alianza Orphanage in Guatemala over $40000 was raised to create the Martina McBride Breast Cancer Research Grant at the Vanderbilt Ingram Center Center in Nashville Today Team Martina fundraising efforts around ldquoIrsquom Gonna Love You Through Itrdquo has topped $300000
Fundraising is only a part of the giving spawned by the song Hands-on volunteering is also an integral component and Martina herself is dedicated to giving of her time to Team Martina projects
While traveling across the country on her Everlasting Tour Martina has taken the opportunity to personally participate in several projects In Newark NJ Martina and a team of volunteers made a visit to Covenant House a teen homeless shelter As part of her visit she surprised the kids with tickets to her concert with George Strait that night Team Martina planned a similar surprise for the residents at a womenrsquos shelter in Montgomery AL In both instances this was the first time many of women and kids had ever been to a concert
The projects organized in each city are as diverse as the fans Team Martina volunteers have packed boxes at food pantries and delivered stockings to cancer patients at Christmas time While her schedule does not always permit her to participate in every town Martina does like to join her fans whenever possible After all being there to ldquolove them through itrdquo is the message in the song
Over Labor Day weekend Martina brings her Everlasting Tour to Live at the Garden on September 4th Do you have a project you would like for Team Martina to support To make a suggestion or to be involved contact SheilaTeamMartinacom Memphis has been heralded as one of the most generous cities in America With the power of a song as inspiration letrsquos rally together Memphis and love somebody through it

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

BOOKS
I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public

I caution you not to read Harrison Scott Keyrsquos new memoir Worldrsquos Largest Man in public as it inspires inappropriate snorting and belly laughs People will stare at you and they will judge you Irsquom sure those around me at Starbucks one Saturday morning were convinced I was under the influence of drugs or alcohol as Keyrsquos book had me shooting iced latte out of my nose
Key has been compared to David Sedaris many times recently since his memoir was released in May Keyrsquos memoir though is decidedly fresher funnier and delightfully more Southern than anything Sedaris has written in years Worldrsquos Largest Man is also far more topical for Southerners especially those who struggle to reconcile their own progressive beliefs with the deep-rooted traditions of the South The memoir chronicles Keyrsquos coming-of-age story as an outsider in the hyper masculine world of the Mississippi Delta His father with his big head and big hands demands that Key conform to the standard heteronormative behaviors of his peers though Harrison is far more interested in his education shopping with his mother and crafts His father forces him to learn the art of hunting yet Key is unable to kill an animal despite years sitting in a deer stand in the forest Keyrsquos eccentric pointed commentary about the Southern experience is refreshing as his point of view never spirals into bitterness
The anecdotes Key recounts are hilarious too One story about his squirrelly neighbors in Savannah GA was particularly funny His neighbors were the type as Key recalls that ldquopoisoned their flowers and grew their weedrdquo and he has a lot of fun at the expense of his neighborrsquos ldquoTina Turner Beyond Thunderdome hairrdquo The way Key is able to poke fun at the absurdity of Southern culture while never drooping into silly caricature provides a good-natured ribbing to the more traditional-minded Southern reader while giving a knowing elbow to those who see Southern culture as antiquated His own struggles to make peace with the culture provide an interesting contrast to the old ways of the South versus the new A good example of this is when Keyrsquos wife sits at the table with men to eat and hersquos shocked as women in his family typically waited until the men finished their meals before eating Hilarity ensues as he processes this seemingly brazen move
Along with Jamie Kornegayrsquos novel Soil Harrison Scott Keyrsquos book is one of my favorite of 2015 Both authors will be joining us on Saturday September 12th at Playhouse on the Square for the Mid-South Book Festival The festival is free and open to the public
