 Hi all, Salvatore here. You may be wondering why I bothered to tweet this article by Tavelin Singh about visiting her son on Thanksgiving. Now some of you have responded to me about her son and the issues and look I don't care about any of that. A mother wants to visit her son and wants to see her son do well. I have no surprise there and no problem with that. What I found interesting was that she quoted the American spirit of coming together on Thanksgiving and suggested Indians should take inspiration from that. Now she says that she and her family read together a play written by Peggy Noonan. Peggy Noonan, I might point out, the arch-conservative who was speechwriter to none other than President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. Now I have nothing against that but there you go. Now Peggy Noonan who is also a regular contributor to Fox News, here's her Thanksgiving story featured on Fox News and here's the story. Now the story is a wonderful nostalgic story about an old America when the pilgrims pulled together to settle a new land and work with the Indians etc. It's very nice and look what the typical American progressive has to say about this story. That's right. They criticize Peggy Noonan for not being sufficiently sympathetic to Native Americans. Now Singh anticipates that criticism because these phony nationalists, but you know again looking at Peggy Noonan, I love Peggy Noonan but you know Joy Reid, again a prominent American progressive, considers Peggy Noonan to be well essentially a racist. She accuses Noonan of deploying tropes frequently used against Black women. So you know Peggy Noonan is not the sort of person we would expect to see cited by an Indian progressive. If anything the message we would take away from Peggy Noonan is that India's minorities should get with the program and celebrate my majority culture in the same way that Native and African Americans do. It is quite bizarre.
