‘I Never Thought I’d Have to Worry About My Mom’ ~ Everett High Principal Erik Naumann
When long-time Everett High Principal Erik Naumann walked to the podium at Wehner Park last Thursday, April 1, with his elderly mother – the popular and light-hearted educator was nearly moved to tears and the hate crimes inflicted on Asian Americans all over the country in the last month were clearly weighing on him.
He held his mother, Iko’s, hand tightly, and said for the first time in his like – he is worried about what might happen to her.
Councilor Jimmy Tri Le gave a thoughtful oration on condemning hate of any kind when we see it. The rally was organized by the Everett Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Equal Employment Commission.
