Heroes are everywhere. They are around you all the time. They are not noticed but they are loved and respected. They are our parents, teachers, construction workers, police and military. The country is in a state of denial. Since the days of the civil rights movement we have made monumental strides in racism and racial equality, but we still have a ways to go.
The democratic process in the country is alive and well. Through the presidential election we are seeing America at its best. The fact that we had a woman candidate and an African-American candidate speaks volumes about the progress of the country. The world is speaking to us and asking us to change our ways. We are losing our democracy due to greed, corruption and abuse of power in the government.
I am starting to see the world in a different light.
