This week I am reading and processing and it feels about as good as anything can feel to me in the tumult of these months going by. I am more hopeful in this moment about true structural and social change than I can remember ever having been before and this is also terrifying. Not terrifying due to potential essential change, but to the possibility of falling short. It is the nature of social progress that it be predominantly incremental and the most important element is to maintain a gravitational movement forward toward something brighter. Nonetheless I persist in seeking sea change rather than progress by inches.
