I can't hate what built me.

During uncertainty, always go back to your roots. We are forever connected, chapter by chapter, in the great book of life.

To all my immigrants from all walks of life, building and growing the American dream: we are a testament of what can be done through resilience and sacrifice.

The American dream works, you just have to work for it. Don't let them take that away from you.

Alza tu voz.

Love y'all,
