Those lines are by Abraham Lincoln! I have been writing about them and talking about them publicly for 30 years. All Americans have been talking about & writing about them since 1864.

An adult has the benefit of agency; a child can’t just order up the support they need. We need the political will to provide it. Wraparound services, anti-trauma support, anti-bullying, restorative justice & conflict resolution etc - such services exist but are underresourced.

Millions of American children live in chronic trauma, many with severe PTSD simply from living in our domestic war zones. This should be seen as a humanitarian crisis & America’s collective child neglect. As president, I’d have a Children’s Council or even Cabinet level position.

The only way to defeat dog whistles Is to drown them out with angel voices. We need to rise up now not in anger but in song. A reborn world is possible on the other side of the mess we’re in, and if we devote ourselves to it fully then our part in creating it will be made clear.

We're in the midst of a breakdown - emotionally, politically, economically, environmentally. It's like a skidding car; you have to let go and let nature realign it. We all have to enter a deep place within ourselves now, in order to summon the forces that will repair the world.

Adding to already extreme wealth inequality, a massive wave of destruction (white collar & blue) will hit the job market over next 10-15 yrs due to automation. Every American should read Andrew Yang's "The War on Normal People."We must rethink our entire economic system, quickly.

They never talk about "a plan that would lead to" cutting taxes for the richest Americans, invading a country, etc. Yet it's always "a plan that will lead to" universal health care, "a plan that will lead to" reparations, "a plan that will lead to" anything like justice for all.
