Dear Colleagues,
The question of "How does one fight such evil?" has
weighed heavily on my mind as well my heart. I don't believe that this is
a military or policy fight, but rather a struggle that begins within each of
us. My personal belief is that each and every time any one of us crosses a
boundary that is socially constructed, be it race, sex, religion,
nationality, etc., to make human contact, we are personally fighting the
evil that manifested yesterday.
Given United States history, there will me much blame fueling
much hatred in the very near future. When we take pause, find strength,
and give voice to reason during these most unreasonable times, we
are fighting the evil that has befallen us.
Peace to us all,
Ed Byrnes
