Don’t let the polarized fringes keep us from realizing how many of us have massive commonalities. Division is good for political business but horrible for society. Love and help one another. Education is vital and empathy is free. ❤️✌️

I'm going to do a special broadcast tomorrow (Friday) night 7pm on 96.7 The Ticket. My friend Randy & I discuss race, reform, & reconciliation. Hopefully, it will be a meaningful show to you. Randy is super wise & I think you'll love hearing his story & his ideas. Love you!
