I remember Barbara Ann Teer as a quiet, determined teacher at Wadleigh Junior High (JHS 88). I only knew her slightly but she left a lasting impression. I taught at Wadleigh when she was there. May she rest in peace and may her family continue to be proud of her accomplishments.

Blessings! Peace! And Respect! To my beloved Harlem Family:

The transition of our dear “Barbara” represents, in many ways, a loss that is incalcuable at this time. When a community that is experiencing a very tenuous hold for its identity, culture, and very existence, loses such a leader, we are stunned; yet, in honoring her enormous energy, vision, valor, and respect for Black culture, we must immediately grasp the baton! As she willing was our ‘BLACK CULTURAL WARRIOR”, so must we continue to hold “ground”. That is how we honor Ancestry. A clarion call has been sounded. Harlem, in what key shall we sing? “TRUTH,VALOR, TRUST’, AND CONTINUANCE” for Barbara. For Harlem. Respect!
