This scene from Clueless about refugees in America may have gone over our heads as kids, but it’s still super relevant today. Thank you for your words of wisdom Cher Horowitz: ❤️
Here is the movie quote transcribed:
Mr. Hall: “Should all oppressed people be allowed refuge in America? Amber will take the con position. Cher will be pro. Cher, two minutes.”
Cher: “So, OK, like right now, for example, the Haitians need to come to America. But some people are all “What about the strain on our resources?” But it’s like, when I had this garden party for my father’s birthday right? I said RSVP because it was a sit-down dinner. But people came that like, did not RSVP so I was like, totally buggin’. I had to haul ass to the kitchen, redistribute the food, squish in extra place settings, but by the end of the day it was like, the more the merrier! And so, if the government could just get to the kitchen, rearrange some things, we could certainly party with the Haitians. And in conclusion, may I please remind you that it does not say RSVP on the Statue of Liberty.”
