Prejudice, Pandemonium, and Power: Where Does True Patriotism & Peace Really Come In?

America’s Democracy was recently challenged and rocked. As the New York Times quoted, the mob that stormed our Nation’s Capitol, “listened to the president.” Trump called them, “very special people.” He went on to also say, “we love you.” Number 45 has been able to do all he continues to do because the authorities, including his own administration, have not held him to the highest level of accountability that he swore to when he took office.

Ahmaud Arbery We Speak Your Name!

We all have our personal lanes we travel, but there comes a time when we all must cross over and merge into oncoming traffic if we want things to change. I am grateful to my various colleagues and community partners that allow me to share my thoughts and opinions that will hopefully reach people that follow my work. By now we have all heard about the 25-year-old African American man, Ahmaud Arbery, who was shot down in cold blood by two white men while he was innocently joggi
