The church I attend has seven congregations divided by languages. French, English, Spanish, Cambodian, Samoan, Swahili and Sudanese can be heard every Sunday and during a multi-congregation service it looks like the face of humanity.

It keeps me in San Diego to have found this inclusion.

MichaelValentine: Can the minister do the service in each of those languages? I will bet he or she can't. In any case, this is impressive. Best, Don Bauder

With all that diversity providing San Diego employers with easily intimidated immigrant workforce no wonder hourly wages are so low.

AlexClarke: And San Diego employers don't want to raise the minimum wage. Best, Don Bauder

That diversity also 'lowers the bar' when it comes to how employers treat employees. Some cultures are much more tolerant of nepotism and misogyny in the work place than others. Some cultures, upon immigrating to the US, rather than adopting US ideas and work ethics implement those they are most familiar with. Much to the detriment of the American workers who often throw their hands up in frustration and bail. In my opinion, this behavior has helped to create the Trumpenstein monster. Have a good day Mr Bauder. I thoroughly enjoy your articles.
