From being paraded as a symbol to reclaiming his purpose, Cap’s story is one of values, conviction, and courageous action.Vanessa explores how educators, like Cap, often feel reduced to performance — test scores, politics, or being treated like glorified babysitters — instead of being honored as the impact-makers they truly are.
