It’s been more than 60 years since Sal and his “Pack of Six” roamed the streets of Bensonhurst on bikes, fishing the piers, playing sewer ball, and enjoying America as it was meant to be; raw, exciting and filled with adventure. But that America came with a price. In 1964, Sal recalled a turning point in America’s history. A time of uncertainty where boys were forced to become men by having their birthdate be the deciding factor if they were going to be called to serve their country in the Vietnam war. Just before Sal’s 19th birthday, his number was pulled, along with his best friend Pete and 3 other members of the Pack of Six. That night, while Sal sat in front of the TV with his family, time slowed to a near standstill as he heard the date read allowed off a draft lottery ping pong ball, “July 8th”….
Fate had a different plan for Sal to serve his country. Education became his training and teaching became his weapon. Dr. Sal earned his Bachelor of Science in Education from City University of New York (CCNY) and continued to earn two Master’s degrees from CCNY in Education, and Administration & Supervision. Due to the war, teachers were a scarce commodity, and at 21, while still a graduate student, Sal entered the school system as an industrial arts teacher.
It is more important to teach people HOW to think independently, rather than WHAT to think collectively.” Dr. Sal is a refreshing, entertaining, informative, and engaging speaker and welcomes new speaking opportunities upon request.
