“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.”

— Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929 – 1968)
American Baptist minister & civil rights activist

Today many millions of Americans celebrate the relief, hope, and promise of the new Trump administration. Many millions also shudder in fear or even horror over the exact same thing. We can only unify in peace when we recognize shared truths. We all want many of the same things… peace, harmony, prosperity. We all abhor many of the same things… greed, dishonesty, hatred. We all need calmness, healing, good health, and even the American dream.
