FROM SOUTH AFRICA TO AMERICA AND BACK

I have a very low threshold for bullies. A part of me has always recognized that bullying is just a softer word for psychological torture. I find it terribly painful when people wield their power to inflict unnecessary suffering on others. And because we don’t exist in a vacuum, the ripple effects of that suffering impact everyone around us. For every life that President Trump has thrown into chaos and turmoil and fear since becoming president just a few months ago, there are so many others affected. Those same health care workers, park rangers, VA employees, scientists and medical researchers who’ve been fired by the tens of thousands without warning, are also dealing with health issues, are caregivers for elderly parents and have children with special needs. About 30% of federal workers are veterans, “employees who have been serving the American people for years, in uniform and in civil service.” https://www.vfw.org/media-and...
