An ode to a disappearing America
Friends,
Today I want to talk about the real meaning of patriotism.
It’s the exact opposite of the puffed-up patriotism peddled by Trump and his white Christian nationalists — with feigned fears that the nation is losing its whiteness or its dominant religion, that too many foreigners are crossing our borders, that men are competing in women’s sports or children are using school bathrooms inconsistent with their sex at birth, or that teachers are not celebrating the nation’s history.
To the contrary:
True patriots don’t fuel racist, religious, or ethnic divisions.
Patriots aren’t homophobic or sexist.
