In response to Daniel about the Chinese need to teach some Americans some manners was a sad commentary on the unfortunate fact that even teachers can be ugly Americans. I am saddened and embarrassed for us as a society that we still hold such prejudices and are unable to not only accept others from other countries as equals but still can’t even respect people of other color or cultures even though they are born here in our own country. If a teacher cannot have the correct principles, dignity, and intelligence of an ethical person, how do we as a nation expect to sustain any semblance of leadership in this world when the children are exposed to such intolerance? Thank you Daniel and Dr. Chen for your integrity and leadership.
