William! What an excellent piece of writing and perspective. I agree with your point of view and message. As a Director-level hospitality leader who combines 14 nationalities and all 50 states into my working crews I can attest that America is as attractive to energetic minds (no matter the age) as ever. Indeed many of my foreign-student visa employees come into our crews not to make money or practice their English, they come to study American leadership. The radical and noisy fringes of our communities do not represent the center core of inclusion, diversity, and innovation that have allowed our country to grow toward a color-blind and tolerant society. There will always be more work, always be challenges, always be some degree of indignation. The innovators will tap into these problems for the energy needed to change for the greatest good. Bravo.
