An Easton superintendent is trying to bridge the gap between race in the U.S.

In less than six months, Dr. Rydell Harrison has already made a name for himself as the new superintendent of the Easton and Redding School District.

He says like any transition, it's been challenging, especially teaching kids in a pandemic - but nothing like the Capitol riot.

Harrison says when he saw the Capitol riots on Jan. 6, he couldn't sleep that night.

He says he hopes we can all learn something from what happened in Washington, D.C.

Harrison says he wants to remind students and parents that we all have a voice and can change our history for the better.

He says it's really up to all of us to create a better equality for everyone.
