Kid Quixotes: A Group of Students, Their Teacher, and the One-Room School Where Everything Is Possible
by Stephen HaffLa inesperada e inspiradora historia real de un salón de clases donde los hijos de inmigrantes indocumentados y sus maestros encuentran su voz y enfrentan el clima político actual con su herramienta más poderosa: su verdad. Still Waters in a Storm («Agua calmada en medio de la tormenta») es un programa extracurricular fundado por Stephen Haff en el 2010 en Bushwick, Brooklyn. Haff, un antiguo maestro de escuela pública, se reúne con veinte estudiantes entre las edades de 5-17 seis veces a la semana para analizar los clásicos, como El paraíso perdido de John Milton, tocar el violín, escribir música y estudiar el latín. Para ellos es un refugio en medio de sus tormentosas vidas. Para los estudiantes, que viven con el miedo constante de ser deportados, Still Waters es una comunidad segura que estimula sus voces. Para Haff representa el santuario por el cual luchó para crear después de haber regresado a Brooklyn a enseñar tras una crisis causada por una depresión bipolar. Haff, quien se inspiró en sus propias experiencias teatrales y pedagógicas con la esperanza de proveerle a los niños una válvula de escape que no existía en el mundo de escuelas públicas que abandonó, desarrolló su nuevo método pedagógico basándose en las terapias de Alcohólicos Anónimos, los rezos de los cuáqueros, la sicoterapia, y hasta en las enseñanzas budistas para así crear un ambiente empático y colaborativo. En este liviano y acogedor espacio, Stephen y sus estudiantes encuentran consuelo y algo más: sus voces. Todos se pusieron de acuerdo: en Still Waters habría solo una regla, todos se escuchan los unos a los otros. Y esta regla ha desatado su increíble potencial. En el 2016, un estudiate de Still Waters aceptó un nuevo desafío: con la ayuda de varios diccionarios, y el visto bueno de la aclamada traductora cervantina, Edith Grossman, traducirían capítulos del clásico Don Quijote de la Mancha del inglés al español. Han tomado la esencia de la historia, aquella de un soñador que no se rinde, y lo transforman para poder contar la historia de sus padres inmigrantes. Para hablar sobre su comunidad, los niños han ido un paso más allá y han adaptado sus traducciones a un errante musical moderno, Las aventuras errantes del niño Quijote, la cual han presentado a lo largo del este de los Estados Unidos. La estrella de Los pequeños quijotes de Brooklyn es Sarah Sierra, de seis años. Antes de Still Waters, Sarah era callada, pero ahora que tiene tantas historias que contar, como la travesía de su madre a través del desierto hacia América en un tigre, o la historia de una niña-caballero que derrota a los gigantes de hielo que encierran a los niños. Sarah no es la única con una historia singular: Talia antes lloraba en la escuela porque no sabía leer, pero ahora sueña con ser una escritora y una adolescente llamada Alex conquista su miedo al público al cantar una canción sobre la aceptación de su sexualidad que recibió una gran ovación. Estos estudiantes han encontrado su voz en Still Waters, y la están utilizando para compartir un mensaje sobre la diversidad, la tolerancia, el amor, el optimismo, y la resiliencia que nos es indispensable a todos. Stephen Haff es el fundador de Still Waters in a Storm, un programa extracurricular dirigido hacia la comunidad h Con su contribuidora, Sarah Sierra: Sarah Sierra se unió a Still Waters in a Storm en 2015 a los seis años. Fue uno de los miembros fundadores del grupo musical Los pequeños quijotes de Brooklyn y obtuvo el papel principal en Las aventuras errantes del niño Quijote. Le encanta contar imaginativas historias que convencen al público de que todo es posible si lo intentas.
