I am glad this spoke to you! I am here to help discuss. In these difficult times, we need to show up with our hearts 💕 to face our history 📚!

Every day, I think I get it. And every day I get a new perspective on the lies I have lived in the most privileged demographic in America. This piece really cracked it open for me.

I’m looking forward to our next conversation…at 62 years old you are helping me appreciate that the land I grew up in and the Iowa nice I was so proud of was mostly fantasy.

Thank you for being so candid. I think many of us are in the process of examining our privileges, and then hopefully working from there to broaden our perspective. I look forward to our next chat!

This is perhaps your strongest piece to date. You build your case eloquently and decisively. The way you connect the threads—personal, historical, and emotional—feels both grounded and compelling. I love reading your work, Sabrina.
