Maria (aka #SoniaMManzano) from Sesame Street is retiring. As odd as it may seem, she and the Sesame Street gang were my first real exposure to multiculturalism and difference. They embodied the concept that being different didn’t matter and it was something to be celebrated. It is a lesson I have carried with me my whole life and continue to pass on. Thank you Sonia. You were one of the first to teach me …
Because love matters, differences don’t.
Adios Maria
