The Many Faces of Discrimination
Dikembe Mutombo, former NBA star, talks about his personal experience with not being accepted because he was different. As a teenager he was called a giraffe, accused of being a ghost and generally harassed because of his height. “People with disabilities aren’t the only ones targeted,” he said. But he rose above it all. After an 18-year professional career, he took his wealth and put it back into his country by building a $30 million hospital.
