I have to agree, Emily, that if I were an immigrant (legally here or
otherwise) reading the discourse on TownTalk over the last few days, I
would find it very very difficult to trust my neighbors. That's bad news
for building community.
I didn't know that you and Raymond Rivas had invited young people in town
to learn more about the town and to start a dialog. What a wonderful
initiative! Perhaps time to think about reviving it? Sometimes when key
players aren't available to carry on worthwhile programs, they are put on
hold. But that doesn't mean we can't start it up again!
And I fully agree that we also need to reach out and find out the stories
of our town's residents. People are here in Riverdale Park for many
different reasons and we come from many different backgrounds. Our stories
are *all* part of our town's story.
