#45 - Ziggy

Hi, welcome back! In this episode, I speak with a good friend of mine, Ziggy. Ziggy is a Tunisian business owner, currently living in New Mexico. Due to his Muslim background, he was recently the target of hate speech. This is one of many other stories that are sprouting up more and more these days. I enjoyed the conversation. It was a good reminder that although some would spew hate, the majority of people are on the side decency and righteousness. Enjoy!
