1/ That so many Americans are left to fend for themselves through this crisis, without proper healthcare and without an adequate bailout - in many cases without even food - does not just speak to how America handles a crisis; it speaks to what America has become.

2/ Yet even here, in the depth of revulsion one feels at our official heartlessness toward health care workers, children and so many of our most vulnerable, there lies the seed of a new American beginning. It’s when we see how off-track we are that we’re most inspired to change.

3/ America has historically responded to our worst deviations from conscience with periods of self-correction. We responded to slavery with abolition, oppression of women with suffrage & institutionalized white supremacy with the civil rights movement. So we will respond to this.

When was it different? I'm not being sarcastic, I don't know, has it ever been different? If so, when?

Abolition. Women’s suffrage. The New Deal. The civil rights movement. It’s not like former generations were a bunch of idiots and never rose to the occasion. It’s simply our turn.

This clip is one small snapshot into the rest of the world's view about the US. His article in @IrishTimes was excellent. If the Irish are saying they pity the US, imagine the other countries? msnbc.com/the-last-word/watc…

I think this pandemic has laid bare what America’s priorities have always been. Taking care of the haves and letting everyone else fend for themselves under the guise of freedom.

Every church I know has reached out weekly 2 their congregations; every business should be doing that as well, even if not fully operational. The states should ROBOCALL w/food bank contacts, free clinic numbers, and gas voucher numbers in person's zip code.
