Gen Z’s Cancel Culture: They’re Cancelling the Racists
As a mom of 2 Gen Z’ers, (one who voted in the primaries- woohoo!), I have some things to say. (See Pew Research Center’s May 2020 article: On the Cusp of Adulthood and Facing an Uncertain Future: What We Know About Gen Z So Far) First: I’m blessed to have watched not only my kids […]

I didn’t hear policy from most candidates, just a frenzied poking-away at Bernie as if his popularity could be chipped away […]

I even reject the label “independent” because it espouses in our culture an “anti-something” stance. In other words— shouldn’t independent thought be all of our default states? […]
