Thanks, Cheryl! Yes. Seeing all the atrocities and violence can harden us to possibility. But we have to continue to struggle to lead with love. 💕

Outstanding summary, I finally gave up and restacked the whole article. I think Georgia and Missouri are good examples of a difficult process toward a one state solution. Coming out of Brown V BOE the expectation of race riots and misdirected police brutality leads the Panthers to arm up and Malcolm X to say by any means necessary. Yet here we are 70 years later where Ahmad Aubrey’s killers actually go to jail, the defeat of Cory Bush shows that we are still a long way from representation, and the Cherokee Delaware etc still are camped and do not have land back.
