America right now is somehow simultaneously the best its ever been and enormously fucked up. I'm in my 50s and the amount of positive change, particularly social, I've experienced in my lifetime is incredible.

There are definitely problems that need solved, Gun Violence is one of them, but the story of America isn't over. We're in a period of turmoil right now but we'll come out of it better than what we started. Just like we have before.
