Because they do not have access to multiple news sites, my students do not understand or know of the rubs/conflicts betwen our two nations. They do not understand why or what are any of the issues. Selia watched the debate with an American who is a democrat. I asked her to respond to Obama's statement that Ronmey doesn't know how to be tough on China.
Selia wrote: "To me, it means I hope Obama would be reelected. It is not wise to be tough on China"
FYI- the night of the election, Selia emailed me several times through hte night, anxious to hear the results of the election.
In Feb 2012, I went to China for three months to teach at the World Academy for the Future of Women (WAFW). Affiliated with Sias University (Henan Province), this academy teaches women how to be global leaders with a focus on the UN Millenium goals. I am going to continue this blog because the young women who were my students have graduated and many have gone on to challenging jobs and/or international studies.
