November 7, 2017Trump’s Wall
A billion immigrants certainly would stress America. Building a wall is one solution. Another solution would be a good tide that lifts all boats. Specifically, two ways for uplifting a billion people are through (1) education and (2) micro-loans. Think we can’t do it? Think again. A headmaster in Africa called to say we had transformed the educational system in The Gambia. And a 1986 graduate of Niskayuna High was named one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people on the planet for his micro-loan work in India. Think you can’t uplift the world? Think again. We will be discussing specifics at Niskayuna Rotary on Tuesday November 14 at 7:15 AM to 8:15 AM at the Blue Ribbon Restaurant, 1801 State St (Route 5). See ya there.
