In 2005, I thought that it was about time that we started the conversation: about who we are, and where we came from:
Time to differentiate ourselves from Emma Lazarus' "... huddled masses, longing to be free..." (of the 20th Century).
Recognizing that, more often than not, perception creates a reality of it's own.

Fast forward: the children did, in fact, grow-up in a "kinder and gentler America". They learned to speak multiple languages, and traveled to places that we only dreamed of.
And yes, we did supplement their education; by home-schooling them on matters relating to American History, Culture, Religions of the World, and Life Management.
