If you're like me, then you've been feeling a lot of disconnection and despair lately. People seem to anesthetize themselves with social media, binge watching and other trivial things. I understand the need for relief from the insanity, but it kind of makes me feel ashamed of having hope that America can solve its problems. Turns out, I'm not alone. This is something that America needs to talk about... and maybe you can help.
