Enjoyed listening to the interview with Michelle Goldshlag; as a college professor and one who teaches intercultural communication, her efforts are spot-on. Rather than these children feeling that they are weird, different, or do not fit in, they truly need to understand their unique culture is a strength and the differentiation can set them apart from others with a skill-set that can be empowering. Less emphasis on being "like everyone else" and more introspective reflection on being "like you" and know there is only ONE you.
