Sometimes America Gets It Right

True story: a good friend of mine named Islam Hussein (who is a native of Egypt, a brilliant engineer and a talented amateur photographer who took the headshot photo I use on articles I write for Consumer Affairs, the Guardian and other outlets) became an American citizen today, and swore his citizenship oath at a public school named after Rosa Parks.

For all the many things America's been doing wrong lately, stories like this remind me that there's still some things we do right.
