My students are culturally diverse almost entirely minority students, many of whom struggle to find food for breakfast every morning. They are intelligent, diligent students who thirst for responsibility over their own education. They are brilliant entrepreneurs who know our city better than I ever will, and they are geographically illiterate. They know that what is happening around the world affects them, but they get lost in how it fits together. Many of my students come from places like Somalia and Cambodia and Vietnam. They know these places intimately but they struggle to see how they fit in to the world at large, they struggle to see how that world connects to the world right in front of them.
