I want to thank quail ridge books for inviting me back and all you people coming out to hear about general Phil Sheridan, who, of the leaders at the war, he i the least know, the others being uhis see s. Grant and william, tecumseh, sherman. These generals appeared on postage stamps honoring great commanders. Sheridan is on grants left. This is appropriate because, by the time the civil war ended, sheridan was sometimes referred as to the left hand of grant. He was ten years younger than grant and sherman. He was a dynamo.

So i mean, thats a whole lot of kids that are being separated from parents, who are coming here, you know, as undocumented child immigrants. So definitely my experience is not unique, but not, theres not a whole lot of awareness, you know, or when people talk about immigration, very seldom do they consider, you know, that other side of immigration, which is the children who get left behind who later come to the u.
