Another email sent to me. All seem to express deep sadness in feeling rejected by family and friends and attacked by Republicans for political gain. As hard as it to accept, there is a lot of work to be done.
I don't know what fate holds for our country, or exactly how history will judge this president. I do know what I think of him.Prejudice in whatever form is immoral and dangerous, as it blinds people to the individual and makes it easy to act on hatred. Out of prejudice great wrongs have been committed. I know that there are moral consequences to every action. A president who fans the flames of prejudice, or allows them to be fanned by his electoral operatives, is not a moral person.
A few times in my life things have happened, or one-time opportunities were lost, and I knew immediately there would be consequences years into the future. On those occasions my heart gets a little heavier, and it never again gets quite as light and hopeful as it had been. This is one of those times.
