I feel this in my bones… THE AMERICAN WORKER IS ALL OF US. Black, white, Latino, Asian, Native, immigrant, union or not. Not the “working class” stereotype. We built this country. We keep it running. Stop dividing. Start recognizing. I have a lot to say open.substack.com/pub/cwebbstu...

TREE HUGGER ROLEX. For years his life was a bare cage in a circus in Peru. Then he was rescued by ADI and brought home to Africa to feel grass beneath his feet and the sun on his back. That was 11 years ago, but we think his natural habitat at ADIWS, still means the world to him!
