I'm very deeply afraid , that listening to these words and seeing the things on the american streets that this is america's last chance for moral and ethnical change for a new america,that features all its citizens to live up to the visions of its creation.....its a little like the gaza situation where both sides [israeli and palestinian] are faced with a choice, either integrate, live together and get over their trauma[from both sides] or one side will either have to perish or to be expelled......America faces a similar decisive choice, of accepting this new america, a thing perhaps many of america's youth are ready and willing to accept and then move on, to a new america with new hope and values, or to fall back on sterotypes, highlight differences ,colour, communities ,, selfishness and greed, as their references and let america fall to pieces[as seperate parts], ultimately into conflict, strife, and disillusion......The clock is ticking as trump is bringing america to the cliff-face and giving it a choice....and the world...holds its breath on the choice the american people have to make? or will they make no choices and let trump dash it all to pieces?

And Trumps enablers, like Rubio and others, will wake up to the fact that they are contributing to the destruction of a once great nation. The U.S. could be great again but not by following the path Trump and his cult have chosen.

Thank you for so eloquently articulating the dilemma that Black parents face. It is our children who must continue to breathe and thrive in the process of realizing an inclusive community of diverse cultures.

Thank you so much for your wisdom and opinion. I am so glad you informed me of the content of the students article. Also the full content of Baldwin’s full report and how black people experience the United States racism.🥰😐
