I listen and hear. This one, Heather Cox Richardson, brought me to tears and sent shivers down my body. Thanks for the vivid reminder that liberty must be fought for.
Can we start something here? If we are determined to fight for our democracy, let's put a light in our window -turn on your porch light, put a light in your window if you're in an apartment - and "set the world ablaze" as Heather put it. It's such a little thing, but something small became something big 250 years ago and we need to do everything we can to keep it alive. We need to let wannabe authoritarians know that we are not afraid and we won't back down.
Thank you, Heather! How inspirational and just what we need at this moment of rebirth and renewal in Easter. Your words remind us of the sacrifices our American ancestors made to make this country. The original genuine Patriots, not the cruel bigots who worship the Mad King and pose as such. So grateful for your efforts and hard work. I respect and value it so much. Again, many, many thanks.
Thank you for your history lessons that remind us there have been many battles of resistence within our country
Have to say thank you with tears in my eyes & a hope for salvation for our beautiful country.

Love you! My wife loves you too.
You and your wife have lots of company Elliot.

Great idea.

Light up the darkness...
Sometimes we forget that liberty needs tending. Thanks for the reminder!
Beautiful work Porfessor, we will fight again. There are Thousands in the street, soon to be millions.
Your speaking also inspired me to attend the protest at the courthouse in Corvallis, OR today! THOUSANDS were in the street!
Beautifully said as usual. I so appreciate your work

Splendid and poignant. Thank you for this.
Perspective. Thank You.
Watched the whole service this morning! Then when the congregation sang “America the Beautiful” I started crying it was so beautiful! Thank you!!
"....and once in a great while..."
No one may ever know - but it may set the world ablaze.
If not you, then who?
