The Life of a Nation

“The life of a nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and virtuous.”
― Frederick Douglass

We look again at the language of ancestor Douglass. The breach in security, truth, virtue and honesty at the Nation’s capitol yesterday have confirmed beyond the shadow of a doubt (for any who still had some), that this country is in deep trouble.

Built on a foundation of genocide and enslavement, it is no surprise we find ourseves here, ravaged by a pandemic, the effects of system racism, greed, inequality.

The only hope is in rebuilding from the roots.

Ripping out the rotted and diseased past and creating a nation like the one Frederick describes.

Do you think it is possible?
