Show Notes
It’s hard to hold on to hope when the images on our screens show military vehicles rolling through our cities, not to protect us, but to intimidate. When peaceful protesters, people simply asking to be heard and seen, are met with force. When the response to unity and justice is tear gas, rubber bullets, and silence from those in power.
Hope can feel naive in moments like these. Fragile. Foolish, even. But hope isn’t about pretending things are okay. It’s about refusing to accept that this is the best we can do. It’s recognizing that our neighbors matter, people we don’t know personally deserve the same respect and dignity that we want for ourselves and the people in our lives that we love and cherish.
After all, everyone is someone’s son or daughter.
