 American Sikhs
American Sikh: Towards a more Perfect Union

The photos of Osama Bin Laden with turban and beard and brown skin led too many people to equate Sikhs with this terrorist. 99% of the people wearing turbans in the US are Sikhs from India. Unfortunately even today, Sikhs are often treated as if they were potential or actual terrorists because of the way they look.

This sold out City Club program helped educate the community about Sikhs and Sikhism

Helping Monika

Over 1,000 of the daily visitors to ClevelandPeople.Com visit from outside the US. The website has been serving as a Virtual Welcoming Center to people from all over the world. We ask the appropriate Ambassador to assist us with specific cases.

For example, we received an e-mail last week from a visitor named Monika in Poland. The message was in Polish so we asked Polish Ambassador John Borkowski to translate for us.

Basically, Monika is coming to the Cleveland Clinic and is nervous. She doesn't know anyone or the language.

We sent Monika's information to many on our Polish (and other) lists and the response was terrific. Several organizations and individuals will be assisting and welcoming Monika.

What a terrific group of Cleveland People!
