Racism - Discrimination -
Stereotypes: What's the difference? And is tolerance really something we
need to be concerned about in Sioux Falls, South Dakota? Spotlight host and PCN Director Darcy Jensen
visits with guests Clara Hart, a
School/Home Liaison for the Sioux Falls School District, and Karla Abbott, Chair
of the Sioux Falls Human Relations Commission, about diversity and tolerance in
our area. Students from the
Memorial Middle School
Improv troupe, under the advisement of Stacy Lane, PVPS S.A.F.E. Prevention
Counselor, offer skits outlining their views on
the topic, and then join the discussion. They bring up questions such as,
“What types of discrimination are there? Where does it come from and why does it
matter? How do schools handle discrimination or diversity?”
Tune in to this special presentation on tolerance and
diversity, and for more
