So ironic? No. The universe just has a sick sense of humor sometimes. But today is fitting, because if nothing else, we should understand the crossroads at which the country finds itself. Everyone will take in this day as they may. I know people who are having inauguration parties (😳 I know, right?). I also know people who are going downtown to the march and will be watching the annual Dr. King service. Tomorrow will come for most of us, and so will our nation's ongoing struggle between chaos and community. That includes whether politicians try to heal the country or exploit divisions along lines of race, gender, and nationality; whether, in the words of Dr. King, we "learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools."
