Good Morning! Habari za asubuhi! To get ready for the Civil Rights Team Day of Welcome on Friday, November 3, we would like to share with you one of the many identities the Civil Rights Team covers: Race and Skin color. Race is very hard to define, but it’s a way to group people who originally come from different parts of the world and are thought to have similar physical traits, including skin color. Some examples of race and skin color include: Asian, Black or African American, Native American, Pacific Islander, white, or any combination of these (known as biracial or multiracial). There may also be more. Remember: All race and skin colors are welcome in our school. If you would like to help the Civil Rights Team celebrate the Day of Welcome on Friday, November 3, 2021, please wear red and white on Friday, and please fill out a Welcoming Hands paper in your homeroom.
