Shared our Thanksgiving meal with an immigrant this year. He is here on work visa, but starts his citizenship process next year. He has no home, as he was born into refugee status in Jordan. Though he didn't seem all that eager, perhaps he will be able to one day visit the Palestinian territory of his ancestors, when/if it is ever a nation state. However, he doesn't want to do that unless and until he is an American citizen. He seems extremely grateful to be in this country, and looks forward to being an American next year.
As a second generation American myself (from the U.K.), I appreciate that it takes all kinds......to become an America!
Hope you had/are having a great Thanksgiving!
