This week it\u2019s the presidential inauguration, and a time of great change in our country. No matter who our elected officials are, we have to keep working to create the society that we want to build, where everyone has freedom and opportunity, where we have strong communities and neighborhoods and families, and where we learn to walk better with the earth. Civil rights icon John Lewis said in 2019, \u201cDo not get lost in a sea of despair. Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way.\u201d Take care, everyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Episode Notes<\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>1.
