I appreciate this. Immensely. For reminding others to be wary of when and how they apply the Oppressor/privilege label. And for the illustration of what work ethic and resourcefulness look like. After 35 years in public schools, I see ever increasing need for your reminders.

What we need to remember on this holiday. Fascinated by the whole story about your father's journey. The nugget about his imported confidence about his bike being kept safe made me smile.

Happy 4th!
