I work at a middle school school in a low-income neighborhood, where many cultures and languages intersect. As I walk into the lunch room, I hear students chatting in Bengali, Spanish, or Chinese. I see students of different skin colors linked arm in arm. It's a beautiful display of unity within diversity that is not frequently found in schools across the country. Our school is a diverse community located in a bustling metropolis. Many of my students, though, don't seem to have ventured far beyond the boundaries of their neighborhood. Most students come from families with limited finances and hard-working, overburdened parents. I have started a craft club at the school that allows students to build practical skills, encourages creativity and expression, and fosters self-empowerment.
