Value
We stand for the value of one human life.
The movie is Judgement at Nuremberg.
Told is the true story of how German people, led by their government, committed selfish murder against the whole world.
Specifically, the Jewish Holocaust.
The purposeful elimination of a people, a culture, for the purpose of the economic blame game.
For the purpose of the idea of racial purity.
For the purpose of hate.
Racism = Genocide.
Those voices of the Nazis, fascism, ethnic nationalism has not disappeared from the earth.
During this pandemic sweeping the world, those voices can be heard in the cheering section.
Let them die; they are on their last legs.
2 to 3% is an acceptable loss.
The cure can't be worse than the disease.
We've got to save the economy, so Grandpa and Grandma should be happy to give up their lives to keep the economy growing.
We stand for the value of one human life.
There continues to be a blind malignancy in the human soul.
A cancer we do not want to address.
Hate.
Hate is the virus that eats out the heart from within.
Hate drives the individual, even the nation, over the cliff of reason.
Hate leaves behind the shores of compassion in favor of the ocean of chaos, anger, and discrimination.
Yet hate is part of the human soul.
Hate and love are two sides of our existence.
Hate is not foreign; it is not grown by aliens from distant planets in our minds.
We conjure the monster ourselves.
We are responsible for hate.
Hate is our child just as much as love is.
With the realization that we grow the weeds of hate, don't you think we can do something about that?
This virus has shed a bright light on the cracks in our society.
Some may have believed our American society was whole and sound.
In the light of this crisis, significant rifts have been exposed.
The poor are dying in higher numbers.
The old are dying in higher numbers.
Black and brown people are dying at higher numbers.
We pretended that there was a safety net, but when that net was called upon, it wasn't there.
BANG!
We hit the ground.
Who is to blame?
Everyone.
What can we do about it?
Everyone, every day, even right now, can decide to do the right thing.
The funny thing about the light is that it can show you where you want to go.
But then you have to walk the walk.
We will want universal health care, no matter if you are employed or not.
We will want a universal, guaranteed income.
We will want universal paid sick leave.
Simply put, we want our government to be of and by the people, caring for and protecting us universally.
Who is my brother?
Who is my sister?
We stand for the value of one human life.
Peace.
