We’re really becoming a country of have and have-nots. Access to healthcare, access to information, access to opportunities, quality education….all of these things are being dismantled unequally across the country. To the point, I guess now…where some kids will have libraries and some kids will have jails. Some kids will get second chances when they make mistakes, and some will be hungry all day because, while all life is sacred, also “no handouts”…etc…just makes me sad. In a couple decades we will have a ton of people coming of age who grew up being taught alternative or watered down facts. I just wonder what we (those privileged to escape or have access to opportunity) do to help the innocent victims of this, how we can help rehabilitate and deprogram an increasingly large proportion of the country which is being intentionally damaged.
