Something Better
Whenever I correspond with colleagues in countries like Sweden, I am reminded what a chasm exists between cultures of inclusion and cultures of exclusion. Observing the results of social investment in health and education for everyone, the contrast with the depravity of our militarist oriented society is staggering. Watching lives wasted and opportunities lost on such a grand scale leaves me wondering where we are heading. Knowing there is a possibility of something better, given the will, our commitment to ending empire becomes all the more imperative.
