Is it even possible to set our country on a course for redemption? How can we come to terms with the fact that half our fellow citizens embrace cruelty, racism, ignorance, and cultism over democracy? How will we navigate the violence and cruelty of these times and protect ourselves, our families, and our integrity?
If you are not asking those questions today, you haven’t been paying attention.
For the past three years I have also been focused on a different set of questions. If America as we know it cannot be saved and we are truly in the abyss, what is the new America we can create when we emerge from this dark place? What is our vision for that new America? What must we do now to lay the foundation for its creation?
