Lakewood High School teamed up with the Lakewood League of Women Voters on Sept. 30 to host an empowering Women in Politics Forum for a gathering of over 50 young women from grades 9-12. The event featured an inspiring panel of trailblazing leaders including U.S. Congresswoman Rep. Shontel Brown, State Sen. Nickie Antonio, Cuyahoga County Council Vice President Cheryl Stephens and Sarah Kepple, President of Lakewood City Council.

On Sept. 27, the LHS History Club/Native American Studies students made a trek downtown with Dr. G. to hear Professor Ned Blackhawk give an amazing talk at the City Club of Cleveland.

From Dr. G: 
In classic Lakewood style, we took the bus downtown, toured the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, found a relative of one of our students on the wall inside, and of course enjoyed a luncheon and talk by Yale Professor Ned Blackhawk (Te-Moak Tribe of the Western Shoshone). His book, The Rediscovery of America: Native Peoples and the Unmasking of US History, won the National Book Award for non-fiction.
