We always looked forward to Heritage Night at my kids’ schools. Since there was no cultural, racial, ethnic, or religious majority at our elementary or junior high schools, nobody was “different.” Seventy-six (76) languages were spoken in the homes of our 2,400 high school students.
Since Heritage Night featured food, we enjoyed delicacies families shared from throughout the world - Peru, Indonesia, Jamaica, Russia, India, Argentina, South Korea, Israel, Pakistan, France, Nigeria, Mexico, Iraq, Philippines, and countless others.
