Ylenia Aguilar was born in born in Orizaba, Veracruz, Mexico and currently serves as a Governing Board President in the Osborn School district, #8 in Phoenix, Arizona. She was undocumented and became a Naturalized U.S. Citizen in 2014. She voted for the first time in a presidential election and for herself on November 8, 2016.

Ylenia was highly active at both of her son’s schools, and was asked to participate in committees at a district level. The more she learned about school governance, the more she was able to see that her influence would have widespread support of the community, particularly in the Latino community. The Osborn School District Governing Board in 2016 had zero representation of current parents and Ylenia knew that her obligation to support her children’s education had to take a greater role. She ran for an open seat and won election to the Board, assuming the seat in January 2017. Ylenia served the first year as a Member, and since has been elected to leadership on the Board, first as Clerk in 2018, and two consecutive terms (currently serving) as Board President in 2019 and 2020.

Ylenia is an advocate for quality education and believes that diversifying the curriculum with multicultural education allows for all students to be validated in their education. In our diverse world, we need to validate all histories and all of humanity. “It is my opinion that culturally responsive curriculum gives the students more of an opportunity to become engaged academically. Education provides the opportunity to have more opportunities in life. For communities who have historically been marginalized, education can be the equalizer.”

Dr. Jane Elliott, internationally known educator, lecturer, diversity trainer, and recipient of the National Mental Health Association Award for Excellence in Education, exposes prejudice and bigotry for what it is, an irrational class system based upon purely arbitrary factors.

In response to the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1968, Jane Elliott devised the controversial and startling, “Blue Eyes/Brown Eyes Exercise.” This, now famous, exercise labels participants as inferior or superior based solely upon the color of their eyes and exposes them to the experience of being a minority. Everyone who is exposed to Jane Elliott’s work, be it through a lecture, workshop, or video, is dramatically affected by it. And if you think this does not apply to you. . . you are in for a rude awakening.

Dr. Elliott was awarded her first honorary doctorate from her alma mater, the University of Northern Iowa, in December of 2018 and her second from the California State University Bakersfield in June of 2019.

Blue Eyed audience viewer, Stuttgart Zeitung states; “It won’t help much to be prepared to face Jane Elliott. This elderly woman will tear down any shield. Even we, the spectators in BLUE EYED, can’t get rid of this feeling of uneasiness, embarrassment, anxiety and utterly helpless hatred when she starts keeping people down, humiliating them, deriding them, incapacitating them. No doubt about this: for three quarters of the time in this documentation Jane Elliott is the meanest, the lowest, the most detestful, the most hypocritical human being hell has ever spit back on earth. But she should be an example for all of us.”

With all the accolades and awards Dr. Elliott has received, her favorite moniker remains ‘B.I.T.C.H.’ I’ll let her explain that one. Here, is Jane Elliott.
