My parents are from India (dots not feathers – love to all my feather friends!).
I’m a first generation American (born in Tennessee). Love both countries something fierce, but then I love and am fascinated by all people/places!
Through the years, what it means to be “American” has taken on so many forms/meanings.
Regardless of nationality, we are all fellow citizens of Earth!
What I hope my kids see is: all of us recognizing the beauty in each and every culture, honoring the intrinsic worth and dignity of each human and increasing our circle to truly be inclusive of everyone…especially those different from us (in all the ways).
What does being American mean to you and your family?
Common Day Hero: Your kindness and generosity are seen and appreciated. Thank you for including me, like family, from day one. Today, I dedicate this post to you, Rickey and Keia.
