Do You See What I See?

New York, Washington, DC, Boston, Miami, Chicago, Cleveland, Jacksonville...the list goes on!

Across our whole nation, from coast to coast, demonstrations and protests are growing. People of all ethnicities are taking to the streets to make their frustrations known and their voices heard. Some are marching for justice and peace, some against police brutality, among other things. Regardless of the details of any of the highest profiled cases in the news of
late, people of all shades are showing up in massive numbers, going as far as marching from city to city, shutting down highways and major thoroughfares, chanting and holding signs that bear the words that describe the feelings in their hearts. I see a shift in the atmosphere. I see a shift in the level of tolerance of the people in this country... the youth in this country. People want to know that they live in a country where there is equal justice for all. People want to know that their futures, and their children's and grandchildren's futures are secure in a country where all people are treated the same. Whether you agree on the issues or not, the country is showing us tonight, right before our eyes, that they want change. The people of this country demand change. I, for one, am in total admiration of the movement that is taking place before my eyes! I am beyond moved to know that people of all shades and walks of life are able to come together on some of the issues that plague our nation and demand change, and in a non-violent manner.

I've heard it said that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. And I'm proud to see Americans coming together, unified in peace, to stand for liberty and justice for all.

Whether you choose to ignore, take part, or simply watch it unfold before you, it cannot be denied. There's a shift taking place... a movement. Something is happening in America. Where will it lead? Do you see what I see?
