Willmar showing
the way to a
more diverse
Minnesota
by Laura Yuen, Minnesota Public Radio
W
ILLMAR, Minn. — Every
afternoon, after workers
finish their shifts at Jennie-O turkey processing
plants, downtown streets come alive
as Somali women meander to shops in
their flowing skirts, and men bark to
one another in their native tongue.
Somali entrepreneurs have opened
15 businesses downtown, most of them
clustered in a little mall, where shoppers
can buy anything from goat meat to
fried sambusa dumplings.
Even though there are fewer Somalis
in west-central Minnesota than in Minneapolis, some find Willmar’s smalltown charm much more appealing than
the hustle and bustle of the big city.

illmar, Minnesota - Todas las tardes, después de
terminar los trabajadores
sus turnos en las plantas
de procesamiento de pavo Jennie-O, las
calles del centro cobran vida cuando las
mujeres somalíes se dirigen a las tiendas.
Empresarios somalíes han abierto
15 negocios en el centro, la mayoría de
ellos agrupados en un pequeño centro
comercial, donde se puede comprar
cualquier cosa, desde carne de cabra frito con bolas de masa hervida sambusa.
