Jeff Duncan-Andrade draws from Tupac Shakurs powerful metaphor of the rose that grows from concrete, as well as research in fields such as public health, social eidemiology, and phsychology. Duncan-Andrade explores the concept of hope as essential for developming effective urban classroom practice. (Note: this forum was part of the annual Alumni of Color Conference; February 26th, 2010)
