It's always surreal when people we knew in our youth (when they were young themselves) die.<br /><br />I didn't hear about that protest in Tally and the truck! Holy cow. People are insane. (Not the protesters -- the driver.) I'll watch Trevor's video although I don't find these protests and riots hard to understand at all.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-1568600760790265962020-05-31T17:17:31.227-04:002020-05-31T17:17:31.227-04:00moving post, Mary, as always.

I'm concerned about the Protesting Crowds risking their Lives to Protest a worthy Cause during Pandemic, it shows how important this is to them and how Passionate. Something MUST Change, too many Generations have now endured inequality and injustice, brutality and dehumanization. America is falling apart and yes, everyone is watching the whole house of cards collapse, while America burns, like Nero, the Moron in the WH is Fiddling but with his insane incendiary Tweets. Anything he says and does always makes a bad situation even worse and he couldn't Unify anyone, nor does he even want to.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-30434853208139986582020-05-30T21:42:45.237-04:002020-05-30T21:42:45.237-04:00I am deeply sorry for the loss of your friend.

Also my God. Whew. That Trevor Noah clip is powerful. He says everything. I found myself bawling as I listened. I think I might need to save it because he says everything so cogently, everything I didn’t know how to express. I hope people watch it and really think about things. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. Trevor’s thoughtful and deep, isn’t he?37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.com
