Letter: Immigrants key part of our United States

Let's come together to build a stronger country.

Editor:
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. This is the golden rule that I was taught in church growing up, and is a guiding principle in many religions and cultures. Ironically, some of the same people that I used to sit with in church are those who are supporting the hate-filled rhetoric of the current administration.


I urge everyone who is reading this to take a good, long look in the mirror, a look at your parents, your children and your grandchildren, and to remember where we all came from. Unless you are of Native American descent, you are the descendant of immigrants.


Immigrants have made this country the beautiful melting pot that it is. Different cultures bring forth different ideas, from which we all grow and evolve. Each of us is different and unique. What we look like on the outside has no bearing of who we are on the inside, which is why we all demand the respect of one another.


It is time to put an end to the hatred and bigotry in our country and work toward positive change. Let's come together to build a stronger United States of America!
