Regardless
of party wins something extraordinarily American happened in November 2018. It is
hard to imagine it happening anywhere else in the world right now.
America
has shown it's steadfastness to our most promising constitutional
roots , of valuing and honoring a broad and diverse representation
for a truly living culture.
This
Congress is historic, installing more elected officials from women
and minority religions and skin color ever. It is regrettable that to
some this threatens a deep, but not reflecting America's promise,
fear of the obvious and unstoppable 'browning' and increased ethnic
diversity of our courageous experiment of a genuinely representative
republic government.
This
'browning' is an evolutionary sociologically phenomenon, not subject to any
political or religious maneuvering or fears. America, to fulfill it's
better heart, is fully valuing- not just tolerating -all diverse
differences just as many white individuals value his/her unexpected
and precious darker skin grandchild.
And
this expression of Americans in support of diversity comes in midst
of a fearful political/religious effort, , of constant loud anti
diversity voices including the President, Shawn Hannity, Laura Ingram
and Rush Limbaugh.
America,
in this new Congress, clearly challenges three decades of continuous
verbiage of hostility toward women, humane immigration, homophobia
and demonizing minority religious perspectives.
This
demonstration of Americans standing up for all Americans and future
Americans is a very bright star in a time that is dangerously dark
and chaotic. The promise of a growing diversely represented America
is our surest hope for a still living and evolving nation.
