The mission of
"America's Fabric," an association of citizens in Tucson, Arizona, is
to communicate a positive understanding of America's heritage and to
make clear why individuals from so many nations around the world have
for centuries sought to live in the United States. "America's Fabric"
is based on the belief that a free government's fabric is woven from
the moral fiber and knowledge of its citizens and the judgement that
Americans in confronting the grave challenges of today's world must be
united in our love of our country and seek before anything else what is
good for our beloved country.

America's Fabric Radio Show
KVOI (1030) Sunday 8:00AM Listen Live
"America's
Fabric" is a radio series dedicated to communicating those historical
beliefs that have made the United States of America a great nation. One
of the principles around which the series has been constructed is the
idea that seekig remedies to the challenges of today's world requires
Americans to rise above their particular political affiliations and to
unite in our love for our country. We should note, and remember, that
the often-quoted saying "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scroundrel"
is a criticism of scoundrels, not patriotism.
