I heard a speech by a great man on Sunday at a language teaching conference. Oussouby Sacko comes from a French-speaking country, Mali, in West Africa, but he grew up speaking an African language at home. He studied architecture in China and then in Japan. He had many great stories to tell about his experiences and problems in different cultures. In 2002, he became a Japanese citizen, and now he is the president of Kyoto Seika University. He wants all students, Japanese and foreign, to have equal chances, and he wants everyone to learn to understand and accept each other’s differences. (by Prof.Douglas Jarrell)
