NORWICH As officials approach the issue of racism and the effect on city services a model may already exist right within the city s borders.
 During its meeting on July 19, the City Council voted unanimously on a resolution to recognize racism as a public health crisis. Among the measures in the resolution is the creation of a Health Equity Commission to help eliminate barriers to healthcare and other opportunities in the city.

The Day - Asian-American leaders discuss their experiences, heritage with NFA students - News from southeastern Connecticut


Norwich  Connecticut Appellate Court Judge Nina F. Elgo recalled a day in elementary school when a boy cornered her and said: “what are you? Are you a Jap? Are you a Chink?”
The stunned girl went home and asked her Filipino immigrant parents what the boy meant. Dissatisfied at the answer, Elgo said it took her years to understand her feelings and response to the experience.
Elgo recalled the incident during a forum Tuesday at Norwich Free Academy that featured several prominent Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders discussing their heritage and the importance of mentoring young students as future leaders. In the program, NFA students in the Asian Cultures Club organized the event as part of the school’s marking of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. ....
