Monday Moment for Down Syndrome - Soeren Palumbo

Most of you have probably heard this speech... if you haven't, take the 10 minutes. It's a message I've talked about before. But he says it so well, for someone so young... and with school starting, we need this reminder. Teachers, please set the example, and don't let the discrimination happen in your class this school year!

Amazing, one of my favs. And to think it was given by a boy in a community not to far from my own! It gives me hope for the future that children with special needs be teachers to all! Way to go!!
