The issue with school and the pandemic I think speaks volumes about what is happening in America. If we really wanted to have children safely in schools this fall, we would have kept everything closed, so that we had a hope of safely sending children to school.
When the narrative is that there is nothing to worry about, that a Federal response is unnecessary because this is either a hoax, or the flu, or a plot to defeat the Republicans, that was the moment that we failed our children. We did not do our very best by them.
So those of us who are staying home and wearing masks and washing our hands and staying apart, we are demonstrating that we care about children and our future. Unfortunately there are just not enough of us to carry the day.
