Reflecting an election without end
November 13, 2020, 11:06 PM UTC
RaceAhead is back after a brief hiatus and will return to a normal schedule next week. But first, here’s your post-U.S. Election week in review, in Haiku.
If votes fall softly
one by one, like trees in the
woods, do you still win?
Do years of effort
to persuade, inspire, teach
pay off over time?
When the voices of
The marginalized are heard,
what song will they sing?
If politics is
power, division, and pain,
what is governing?
If needs are ignored
one by one and pushed aside
Will we know justice?
Have a safe and joyful weekend. Get outside if you can. Maybe even sing!
