Back to School

Four Chinese detainees came to GED class today. They don't speak any English. One guy has been living in S.F. Chinatown for about ten years, but he never learned English. He said he worked with people who only spoke Chinese in the restaurant.

Another guy couldn't believe that he was meeting me in person. He said he'd seen me on TV and knew about my case. He's going back to China. He offered to host me if I go back to China.

All of them are older than I am for a change. They're also fathers and grandfathers.

I will be teaching them English and learning about their lives.
