Rescue our soul.

    June 7, 2017

    ‘But if not for ourselves, at least for our children, we should unite to respond to these attacks on our lives, liberties and the environment. In his poem “Let America be America Again,” Langston Hughes says,’

    Out of the rack and ruin of our gangster death,

    The rape and rot of graft, and stealth, and lies,

    We, the people, must redeem

    The land, the mines, the plants, the rivers.

    The mountains and the endless plain—

    All, all the stretch of these great green states—

    And make America again!

    ‘It is indeed possible that after this period of turmoil we may reach that beautiful stage when democracy and justice will come back to America. As Leonard Cohen says in his song “Democracy,”’

    I’m sentimental, if you know what I mean

    I love the country but I can’t stand the scene.

    And I’m neither left or right

    I’m just staying home tonight,

    getting lost in that hopeless little screen.

    But I’m stubborn as those garbage bags

    that Time cannot decay,

    I’m junk but I’m still holding up

    this little wild bouquet:

    Democracy is coming to the USA.
