GUEST EDITORIAL--WHY I WON'T SURRENDER AND TAKE DOWN MY TRUMP FLAG--BY LEONARD AMICOLA, CHHS CLASS OF 1966
I am the son of a man who fled a fascist dictatorship to come to America. My father refused to serve in Mussolini’s army. His family was also opposed to Mussolini, and they hid him when government troops came by to round up draftees.
My father came to the United States in 1928. He told me “I am American first, and Italian second.” He remained opposed to fascism, and was proud to serve in the US Army during World War II. Many of my family served as well. MORE AT Guest Editorial: Why I won't surrender and take down my Trump flag.
