There are forces that want you to believe we are all just ugly and hateful. But we aren't.

I was thinking along these lines this morning thinking about my own childhood. President Trump talks about Making America Safe Again. I know, I know, it's about getting criminals off the street and all of that. But couldn't help thinking about the trust factor of us trusting one another again too. Most of us can look back to a time when in our youthful innocence we felt safe. Regardless of all that was going on in the bigger world and now we know, under the surface, we just had that grounding sense of "it's all ok". I think we 'get back' to that feeling by being trustworthy ourselves and re-learning to trust worthy people. THAT would be Building Back Better.
I can also give multiple examples of the kindness of strangers from the 60's..... hold those memories folks, pass them on with both words and deeds.
I've thought about this two and each time I discuss it with people, I come to the same sad conclusion that safety and trust is dependent on the "13 percent" fearing what a community of white folk will do to them if they behave like savages.
Everything started going down-hill at a certain time when a certain people ceased being polite because communities stopped... making wind-chimes.
I hope I'm wrong, but I think this is the sad truth.
