First Generation American: “This is not the American dream, this is the American nightmare”

LIBRE’s Executive Director, Daniel Garza, shares his story growing up as a first-generation American. He faced hardships but learned that with hard work and opportunity, anything is possible.

This video, released last month by the LIBRE Initiative, is an awesome example of the very best of what America is about. It is also, as we discussed at The Franklin Center’s TRICE conference this morning, an excellent example of the kind of personal storytelling that is an important part of messaging in politics today, and area where Republicans can often lag behind Democrats. Authenticity speaks to people. Garza’s own example of delivering the message of economic freedom is the perfect example of that.
