The Day When No One Ruled the World

November 9, 2016

I was not born in America. My mother emigrated from a small island to America because it gave her better options. She was able to send food, clothing and money to our family. A country of opportunity. A country of growth. A country of acceptance.

UNITY - President Elect Trump, you cannot unify a country when you detest half of the people. You cannot be a President for all people when you campaigned against anyone that was not white. You want to build a wall in Mexico to prevent…rapists? Murderers? from entering the country. Will you ban Muslims from entering the country? What about women? He has no respect for them. Your mother, your sister, your wife, your daughters. None.

I am unable to give you a chance when you so clearly were outspoken against who and what America is… One of freedom of religion, love, speech. Minorities should be afraid. Veterans, I lost my brother to war. How he treated that Muslim family whose son also gave his life for this country is unacceptable, a travesty and is unforgivable.

Markets WORLDWIDE are down. What life awaits my children? Is this truly what we want? Too many questions with not enough answers. This is now the face of America. This is who the world will first see.
