In an eloquent apology to our global neighbors after Donald Trump’s Muslim – immigration ban, Keith Olbermann paints a vivid and moving picture of how our nation of immigrants evolved, and why it’s necessary to continue to welcome people in. Also, Keith reminds us – that we are better than this. You’ll search far for a more inspiring story of ‘us’ – who we are, and who we’ve been since the Lady held the light aloft for everyone who came with courage and hope. Our light is flickering, and it looks a bit like a bug light just now, but Olbermann can be mighty inspiring!
This apology as a promise to the world; but I believe it’s one we can make to ourselves as well.
“He is a traitor to everything we stand for. We will remove him. We will welcome you again. it is us who are getting everything from you, and until then; we – the citizens of the United States, beg your forgiveness.”
