You do realize that his dad immigrated from Cuba and he wants to help these dreamers.Why not help folks who immigrated from Italy, Germany and Poland who are citizens?
The money will go to TheDream.US, a nonprofit that has been helping send such kids, known as the dreamers, go to college. The group is already funding scholarships for almost 3,000 kids currently in college, with backing from the foundations of other techies, including Bill and Melinda Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, and Pierre and Pam Omidyar.
Bezos said his father immigrated to the United States at age 16 from Cuba. “He landed in this country alone and unable to speak English, unlike immigrants from Italy, Germany and Poland.” Bezos said in a statement. “With a lot of grit and determination—and the help of some remarkable organizations in Delaware—my dad became an outstanding citizen, and he continues to give back to the country that he feels blessed him in so many ways. MacKenzie and I are honored to be able to help today’s Dreamers by funding these scholarships.”
"Frankly I hate white Americans, and will do anything I can do to help anyone but these oppressors." Bezos added.
