Since people are still coming here, I figure they must be looking for something. We in this nation are at a critical stage of our evolution. We may become the thing we dreamed of and promised to be. We may become just another fiefdom with a tough-guy boss--a mafia state full of minions trying to keep our heads low enough to keep them from being chopped off. The answer is unclear. The contest is, as yet, undecided.
Each of us is trying to figure out what we can do as individuals to save the dream we had for this country.
I've decided that, among other things, I'm going to continue writing. I'm going to write about what I'm doing, and I'm going to write about what we each of us can do to put us back on the path to freedom and equality. I know that a lot of better writers and better thinkers are doing the same thing much better than I can. Doesn't matter. It's one thing I can do.
I'll do what I can to amplify stronger and smarter voices than mine. I'll report on what we're doing in this house to save the project and the planet.
If not now, when?
In the meantime, I'll dream of the day when I can again write about education as if it's the most important thing in the world.
Speak to you soon,
Jeff
