Fast forward to 2026, and CH-CH will have its first Jackie Robinson Day on campus. You’re probably wondering what that means. This day is a celebration and reminder of how we at CH-CH can embody the same life of purpose that Jackie Robinson did. As Jackie is quoted as saying, "A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives." Our truest legacy is the impact we have on the spaces around us, and one where we spend much of our time is here at CH-CH.

Craft Sutton, historian, researcher, cultural enthusiast, and passionate storyteller, visited our campus to explore the powerful intersection of sneakers, culture, identity, and history. From the moment he said, “Good morning,” it was clear this wouldn’t be a traditional lecture. Craft invited us into conversation immediately, asking, “Are there any sneakerheads in the building?” Hands went up. What followed was a dynamic, student-centered exploration of how something as everyday as a pair of sneakers holds generations of meaning.

Your child heard something at school or saw on the news, and has questions about race. What is Black Lives Matter about? Why are people upset? Why are people treated differently?
