Kwanzaa brings unique value to the holiday season, adding to the wonderfully diverse spiritual values that make up America’s holiday experience. To all who celebrate its principles, may Kwanzaa this year be days of relevance, meaning and joy.

Rethink America! Ideas offered by the system that brought us into this mess are not the ideas that will lead us out of this mess. The win in 2020 is not about left versus center, but fresh versus stale. We won’t have an amazing result next year unless we’re willing to be amazing.

Politicians sometimes get rich to the tune of millions & when they get caught they go to prison. Corporations without conscience get rich to the tune of billions & when they get caught more often than not get ludicrously small fines. System spits out the 1st, thrives on the 2nd.

Corporate corruption of US govt is not new; it’s a trend that’s been going on for 40+ years. Most of us have in some way conspired with it if only by ignoring it. Trump is just a symptom. We need to more than replace him; we need to confront the deeper corruption that caused him.

First of all, they’re not. And are you saying that because America is wonderful, we don’t have to face our shadows or correct our mistakes? Failure to confront our errors is not patriotism, it’s a lack of patriotism.

There is no amount of money, technology or material power of any kind that can prevail against the soul force of an awakened citizenry. The only thing to fear is our temptation to close our eyes, to go to sleep and distract ourselves from the suffering of our fellow human beings.

Either crony capitalism or humanity will survive - but not both. From the destruction of our environment to contaminants in food & water to toxins in the air to crushing despair among too many: will huge corporate entities make more billions, or will humanity even make it at all?

A politics of conscience is the only antidote to a politics of greed. Only a radical humanitarianism can undo the immoral consequences of soulless economic dictates that have corrupted our government and highjacked America’s value system.

The star of Christmas is the idea that something new can be born even in a time of overwhelming darkness. If enough of us today consider that possibility, the world itself will have a chance to start over. Wishing peace and happiness to all the people on earth.

The current president is like an opportunistic infection. His presidency couldn’t have happened had there not been a societally weakened immune system. Each citizen should think of ourselves as a cell in an immune system that needs to start functioning in a much more optimal way.

The issue is not how big or small government is; the issue is who it’s working for. Right now, mainly due to the undue influence of money on our political system, our government does more to advocate for short term corporate profits than it does to advocate for us.

Being anti-slavery simply meant you didn’t agree with slavery; being an abolitionist meant you’d crossed a bridge inside yourself, from “I don’t agree” to “Not on my watch.” Which are you in relation to a corporate aristocracy that has corrupted our govt and eroded our democracy?
