Friends,
When historians look back on this dark time, I don’t think they’ll see the end of what we value in America. More likely, they’ll see the beginning.
I’m sure you’ve had the experience of taking something or someone for granted until you’re in danger of losing them. It’s only then that you realize how important they are.
I think something similar is happening in America, and what we’re realizing is how important are some values we’ve long taken for granted.
Many people tell me they hadn’t really appreciated democracy until the last nine and a half horrible months. Or the rule of law. Or due process.
Many hadn’t fully understood the meaning of tyranny and the critical importance of standing up against it.
