Language and history of people

 Today sometime, four thousand sheep were delivered to the Chinese government by the Mongolian government.  It's sort of a peace offering.  When the Mongolians protested the fact that they were not allowed to speak their true language China acted in a very robust way...by killing.  You may feel anger at China's way of dealing with this but stop and think about our history and what we have done to the Indigenous people of this country as well as telling people who become citizens of this country that we don't want to hear their native tongue but want to hear only American English from them.  We are not respecting them or their origins, OR their customs or whatever makes them the people they are.  We are, believe it or not, a melting pot and as soon as we recognize this the better off we all will be.  Acceptance is the greatest gift we can give each other.
