Welcome back to Loving Later Life and if you are a returning Loving Later Lifer I so appreciate you. If you are new, thank you, welcome and this is a hell of a first episode to hear! And I'm hoping it won't be your last.
I'm going out on a limb with this one while reminding myself of phrases like, 'not everyone will like what you have to say, and that's ok,' or Hamilton's, "If you stand for nothing, what will you fall for" or as Martin Luther King Jr. said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter," and yes, lastly the saying: "If you see something, say something."
I have been silent, and I'm at the point now where I feel if I don't say something, it will make me complicit in history repeating itself, and as MLK said, in watching our lives (as we know it) begin to end. I decided that I can't let the fear of losing listeners or of upsetting anyone prevent me from sharing a perspective that I've been thinking about, and then heard it stated much more eloquently by a historian. So, I ask that you please hang in for thirteen minutes until the end, no matter if you agree or not.
