Thursday was nothing short of inspirational! I’m writing to sincerely thank you for being so present during our Future Aces celebration. Your being there not only elevated its meaning, but it also completed the loop of understanding that we focused on building with new students and staff members.

I want to thank you so much for sharing your priceless story and that of your family as well. I have had over 20 guest speakers present to my teams over the last couple of years. I must say that no one has been able to captivate an audience like you did today.

Bernice's passion and drive to share her family's legacy and the reality of racism then and now was felt by all, as it moved us deeply beyond words. The story she so lovingly shared is one of utmost perseverance and determination that MUST be shared internationally.

I wish more people could hear his whole story, not just about how he was discriminated against as a hockey player. I want people to know how successful he became despite the discrimination and disappointments.

I wish to thank you very much for bringing your story and inspiration to our school, and especially to our classroom. What a privilege to hear some first-hand experiences of history in the making. You helped to make it real for the kids. I cannot imagine the pain and heartache of such explicit rejection, and then the determination to overcome the road blocks. How amazing!

Bernice Carnegie is one of the most genuine and accomplished professionals I have met in a long time!! She is the essence of self-confidence coupled with such a humility and dedication to making our young folks feel better about themselves and infused within them a will and sense to accomplish and be the best they can be.
