I’ve written No Tildes on Tuesday so that I can express to readers the complexities that may arise in children’s lives when they are not introduced and taught to appreciate both their heritages. When children, whether monocultural or multicultural, are taught early in life to embrace not only their heritage(s) and culture(s), but the heritage(s) and culture(s) of others: their school mates, neighbors and associates near and far, it only enhances and builds their self-worth as hearty and powerful individuals who are sure of themselves. Children should not fear loving and appreciating both and/or all of their heritages, or the heritages of others. Perhaps then, bullying will become a record low in our nation's schools.
