LETTERS: This is the face of America; what to do about the 'unvaxed'

This is the face of America
Everyone, take a good look at page A5 of this Sunday’s Gazette, showing the Best & Brightest scholarship winners for the high school class of 2021. I congratulate each winner as representative of a generation that is skilled, hardworking and goal-oriented.
I was struck, however, by the names and faces. This page is an icon of our city’s diversity, running the full gamut of ethnicity and gender. The family names—Nashikkar, Vispute, Zamora Ruelas, Cimpaye, Bui, Nguyen-Lopez, and Patel—further suggest this great diversity and provide an important lesson for our country. These are families that came from all over the world; immigrants, possibly refugees, maybe without much obvious to offer but their humanity. The families likely came for the great promise of America: the chance to make better lives for their children. Now, here are their children, excelling, making themselves into exemplary citizens.
