If you’re about to think “Oh no, I might not be able to get this or that at the grocery store,” take a moment to consider how US sanctions have effected people in Cuba, Iran & Venezuela. Millions of people for whom life has been made so hard. These are ways we can grow from this.

So true... let's hope that long after this invisible threat passes we never forget we are all in this together.

Sanctions are an act of war. 500,000 children dead due to sanctions on Iraq
