I am grateful to have been granted me the gift of life everyday of 5780. My hope for America in 5781 is that every life will be seen as sacred and of value. My hope is that America finally upholds the rights to life, liberty, property, and pursuit of happiness for all. My hope for 5781 is that it will be the last time I have to say Black Lives Matter, because it will be a given; that its the last time the American Government belittles the lives of Native Americans, Trans Folks, POWs, Folks with disabilities, immigrants, and refugees. I hope that this will be the last time Jews are scapegoated for the crimes of white, Christian supremacy; that this year will be the last time I hear any minority group utilizing white supremacist talking points to stoke flames of division. I hope 5781 is the year we uproot white supremacy with collective liberation.
