We are living through a moment when the word immigrant has become a political instrument. I won’t pretend otherwise.

The debates are loud and often dishonest on multiple sides, and I have learned to be precise about what I will and will not engage. I will not perform victimhood. I will not perform gratitude.

What I will do is tell you what it is like to sit across from a senior executive at a conference in Chicago, say, or a dinner in Singapore and watch the slight recalibration happen when they learn where I’m from. The reassessment. The brief, involuntary arithmetic.

Most people are not malicious. They are simply working from inadequate data. In the end, its' about performance and results.

What were you like in the ’70s?

We were on the water—sails full, crowds cheering, history in motion during the 1976 Bicentennial celebration and Operation Sail.

Fast forward to today… we’re bringing that same spirit back with Sail4th 250.

The legacy continues. The celebration returns.
