The numbers don't lie, but I've come to realize that the American dream is about much more than the pursuit of economic success. It's about standing up for the values of this great nation and taking part in the democratic process. Hispanic Americans, whether recently naturalized or here for generations, must vote. Like my parents before me, I often tell my children to work hard. But I also remind them that as Americans, we have a duty to our country, too. For many Hispanic Americans, the 2016 election was a wakeup call, and the excesses of the Trump administration have left us determined to have a say in how our country is run.
“If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”
— Golda Meir
Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.
“If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."
