Mariano's International Flags
Mariano's International Food Aisles with flags hung up Palestinian Americans want their Palestine flag included next to their food aisles.
Mariano is a fresh market which has international food aisles, they have all the countries flags hung up, except Palestine. Until Saadi Ramadan stood up for the Palestinian Americans and sent a letter to the corporate of Mariano’s.
Like Saadi Ramadan has mentioned in the letter, “You are among the largest Palestinian community near this store.” Yes, Oak Lawn’s community and other places near Oak Lawn such as Burbank and Bridgeview are called “Little Palestine”.
There has been a response from Mr. Orth, the Category Manager at Roundy’s for Global Cuisine, that he will talk to the flag supplier if specifically there is a Palestinian flag available.

Saadi Ramadan went through a strong battle getting the Palestinian flag up with the rest of the international flags, but eventually he gets to his goal and to all the Palestinian Americans goal. The Palestine flag has been up in Mariano’s. All thanks to Mr Ramadan.
