I weep for the Evers family and for our nation. Have we ever had inclusive values? Has there ever been a time when we really, truly aspired to equality, love and compassion? Rise up, We THE PEOPLE. We really must be the change we want to see in the world.

We really need another Kennedy in the White House! Their love and compassion for all people was the legacy left by John Fitzgerald, and his brother Bobby Kennedy!
