My “Diversity” class is using Yforum for the 1st time. One individual believes that evolution is a religion.

Tofa! I am new to yforum. I got to teach a year on Tutuila, 5 mi. from Pago Pago. I took my middle school class to a local mall, Laufou, to purchase matching lava lavas (wrap arounds). I asked the clerk how much material we needed. She indicated that I (the small palagi– white guy) needed a couple feet. She then raised her voice to declare that the “fat boys back there needed much more.” I knew one student was especially sensitive, so I turned to console him, but no… He and the other boy are beaming. In Samoa, “Fat is where it’s at!” Even married women seemed to take pride in their girth, as it indicated that they were well cared for. Fa soifua!
