Liberate

Have had the privilege of spending a good part of today listening to the One World Together at Home, international concerts to raise awareness and support our front line workers. Listening to performers all over the world united in support was a wonderful thing. Interesting contrast to seeing posts and hearing in the news about protests in the US these past days, about needing to "liberate" our country. What we need to liberate from though, is divisive politics, a commander in chief who formulates hate instead of unity, and other forces that want to drive us apart when our greatest strength right now is how we can support our medical workers and keep ourselves and families safe by listening to the guidance of our scientific community. It truly is one world in all this, and the sooner we learn this the better.
