I wanted to wish a happy and healthy Thanksgiving to our readers and clients. We hope you will take the time to relax this holiday and spend time with your families.
During this week of Thanksgiving — the most American of holidays — NPR is spending time discussing about what it means to become an American. The answers come from three noted authors — who've written about newcomers to the United States.
One of the authors Joseph O'Neill said:
"One of the great pluses of being an immigrant is you get to start again in terms of your identity," he says. "You get to shed the narratives which cling to you."
O'Neill says he found America to be a welcoming place, where people were less inclined to make judgments based on race or class — but also not particularly interested in learning about his background.
"As long as you show willingness, they are prepared to stick the label of 'American' on you," he says.
That is the true spirit of Thanksgiving.
Here is an interesting video one of my readers emailed me yesterday. This is another example how anti immigrants across the country are trying to show that under Obama administration all hell will break loose as it relates to immigration.
Here is an interesting discussion on what is illegal immigration by the Pinky Show
I was featured on a special edition of the Rick Amato Show on Monday from 8pm-11pm immediately following the President's State Of The Union speech. Scheduled guests included Congressman Bob Filner and Brian Bilbray. The president discussed the economy and Immigration in the speech.
