A lesson in diversity:
Charlestown students ski and learn about differences |
| |
CHARLESTOWN — Charlestown Middle School 8th-grader Erin K.
Cody likes to dress “goth.” She wears black clothing, thick-colored
eyeliner and T-shirts with graphics such as bleeding spiders.
Erin says she likes her wardrobe because it’s comfortable,
yet she also knows some of her peers “label” her solely because
of her clothes. And that, Erin says, is “stupid” because
“no one gets to know the person behind the clothes.” |

Rice and Colin Powell.
“I’m here to tell you I’m not only the third
(person of color) in the administration,” said Steven Nesmith,
who serves as assistant secretary for the Office of Congressional
and Intergovernmental Relations.  |
