I Carried a Briefcase to Elementary School. Why?

Questions I Wish I’d Asked My Parents by Mel Foster

Episode notes

In Episode 2 of Questions I Wish I'd Asked My Parents, we meet Mark Kaminski, a doctor who patented a cure for a type of lymphoma. His parents came to the U.S. from Poland. And Polish was the only language spoken in their home. Then Mark entered kindergarten. With a briefcase. He might as well have had a sign on his back that read: "Kick me, I'm a nerd who doesn't speak English."
