“In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.”
Michael Jackson
I can't say exactly when and to whom I said it, but I do know that in the days following the scandalous behavior of NYC police during the West Indian Day Parade just this past September, I let ones and ones know how seriously hateful and vile their behavior was. I exhorted people for merely laughing in prudish shame; brushing off the incident(s), as one would the overseer to ward off the whip, as innocent bacchanal. I knew there was an unforeseen devilish, fiendish enjoyment that was masking perfect hatred and an attempt to ridicule and demoralize.
