Some of Our Partners

A GMDC Facilitator asked a class of Mankato 3rd graders if they had any stories of discrimination that they would like to share.

A young girl, wearing a traditional Muslim headdress, raised her hand and said in a soft voice that she had been teased, called names, and stared at. She had even been hit, just for having darker skin and wearing the clothing she was wearing. Her eyes filled with tears. When I looked concerned for her, she looked right into my face and said 'But not here, not in Mankato! Here everyone is so good to me, they smile and they sit by me at lunch. We love it here.'"

Isn't this the kind of community we want for all of our children?
