The title is an old Chinese proverb that resonates in my life. I’m born post-slavery in the greatest of nations, participated in the liberating sixties movements, immersed from its formative years into the information age, and now witnessing the first man of color securing the presidential nomination on a major party ticket.
If sometimes I seem to be too cynical about life in America and its dominant society, if sometimes I fail to see the fundamental fairness and integrity in its hesitantly maturing humanity, let me remember and savor this significant moment in history.
And it’s about damn time!
