Local Students Celebrate a Multicultural Thanksgiving

By Delores Jones and Linda Sher

Kansas City, MO – People from Argentina, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Sudan and Pakistan gathered this Thanksgiving at Donnelly College in Kansas City, Kansas to continue its annual Thanks-and-Giving celebration. Natives, newcomers at table again, students from around the world shared with dishes from their home country and traditions that gave the celebration a novel personal touch.

Host Delores Jones reports from the event.
