Allstate CEO Lectures About Accepting People's Differences After Terror Attack

Posted • January 3, 2025: Our first thought after hearing that a man flying an ISIS flag rammed a rented pickup truck into a crowd of New Year's revelers on Bourbon Street in New Orleans wasn't, gee, we're worried about the potential backlash against Muslims.
