Look over there.
What you see?
A woman is walking a dog.
There is a Starbucks cup on the tree lawn.
It’s cloudy today.
Look over there.
What you see?
A young black woman is playing with a Hispanic child.
There’s a delivery at the door.
A cop grins because he killed some guy.
Look over there.
What you see?
Congress deaf dumb and blind.
Senate deaf dumb and blind.
President mocks humanity.
Look over there.
What you see.
I see fear held so long that it has burned out compassion.
I see hate so deep that there’s no turning back.
I see change coming.
A child yells.
A mother weeps.
A daddy lost.
A dream destroyed.
Look over there.
What you see?
Through tears, I see truth setting minds free.
Through tears, I see justice push back.
Through tears, I see our hope is here.
See it?
It’s right in front of you.
It’s you.
You will remake the world.
You are our hope.
What you see?
Peace
