About this listen

March 31st Governor Gordon issued an "Arab-American Heritage Month" proclamation. Don't feel bad if you didn't know about it. Nobody did. The proclamation doesn't show up on his website and no announcement email was sent out. At first, I thought the image I found on social media was a hoax. After calling the Governor's Office, I confirmed that indeed he did sign it.

I don't have a problem with any legal immigrant. That's what this country was founded on. I do, however, have an issue with artificially singling out individual groups based on race. That's a big reason why we have such a problem in our country right now. If the Gov wanted to make a splash, he should have proclaimed April "American Heritage Month" instead.
