Keynote: ReValue America Dr Shanon Brooks Keynote Adress at FATJEF ReValue America What are the Five Founding American Ideals? What is the Real Story of the American Founding? What are the 3 Steps to Reviving American Confidence? “Only a few lifetimes ago things were very different in the United States. Originality and variety were common currency; our freedom from regimentation made us the miracle of the world; social-class boundaries were relatively easy to cross. We were something special, we Americans, all by ourselves, without government sticking its nose into our lives, without institutions and social agencies telling us how to think and feel.” John Gato Were the colonists a breed apart from us? No; the truth is that they were the beneficiaries of a system of education that facilitated their natural genius. We call it TJEd.
Today, we can apply the same principles and, like our forebears, meet the challenges of our time with character, competence and courage to triumph over the circumstances that imperil our freedom and prosperity. ReValue America is that message.
Teens: Leaders of the New World We all know that for years you have been told that you are awesome, and incredible. Well here’s the truth. . . it doesn’t matter the adults think. What matters is do you believe it and are you ready? Ready or not, you will lead America into the 21st century. What does that mean? It means that you will be looked up to for solutions during very long, hard economic times. It means that you will be personally involved in international struggles. It means that as times get tough, society will begin to break down and you will have to find strong solutions to save American families and communities. Do you have the answers? Whether America continues to be a world leader or not depends on you. What you do over the next 5 years will in great measure decide the difference between a nation of free citizens or a country of dependent followers. You alone will lead this nation into its greatest moments or watch guiltily as she drifts off into the annals of bygone civilizations. These are heavy thoughts. You are extraordinary people. This is what you were born for. It is time to step into your greatness.
Please join Dr. Shanon Brooks for a “no nonsense”, “hard hitting”, “face your realities and come out victorious discussion about you and the future.
Session 1: TJED For Dummies: A workshop for TJEd New Comers What is Conveyor Belt Education? Who is T.J. and Ed? Keys, phases, environments—what is everyone talking about? If you can’t make heads or tails of the questions and terms above, this workshop is for you.
Session 2: Boot Camp for Parents: TJEd for Parents of Teens The truth is—today’s youth are being assaulted on every side by forces that challenge even the strongest adults. “Parent training” consisting of having “been there/done that” is not enough to equip the modern mother or father. It truly is a hostile world. Today’s youth need parents who are confident, united, savvy and stalwart. This workshop will teach you how to provide the leadership your kids are craving.
Session 3: The Fourth Turning: A Look Into the Future from the Past Is it possible to predict the future? What if you could look ahead and get a glimpse of America for the next 50 years—would you be willing to change your life based on what you saw? In this lecture we will acquaint you with research that can give you an uncanny peek at what to expect over the next 50 years. We will discuss what you can do to take advantage of this forecasting and how it will impact your occupation, family life, education and government.
