Great episode of Shark Tank to analyze. Loved Robert in this. Nationalism, while often meant wholeheartedly, can be extremely harmful. The beginning of this clip gets that perfectly and the middle with Robert is amazing.

 “I remember my dad came here and worked in a factory and people made fun of him because he wasn’t an American. And they called him all kinds of names and it hurt him deeply. You know, my dad past away last year. And, uh, I just always asked him what he was most proud of and that first factory job, not when he made some money, not when he got promoted, that factory job where he swept floors, you know, that made him proud.”
