This leaves me speechless. We are a better nation of people. I hope your friend and her daughter can see hope for the Ukrainian people through actions by the USA and other countries. Apathy is terrible and so troubling.
What a moving story. I too worry that too many Americans take their freedoms for granted, this explains the political apathy and willingness of some to accept disinformation. In court, FOX says their disinformation is “infotainment”, and yes, the circus is all entertainment– until your life depends upon understanding the truth.
Thanks Joyce… I do get your comments and I apologize that the blog is cumbersome to use… working on it. I’ll send you an e-mail with some more information.
Enjoyed this piece very much but found it heartbreaking. Ukrainians are risking their lives to defend their young democracy. We are offended by Putin’s misinformation campaign but don’t recognize it in our own country. American’s don’t realize how our own democracy is threatened. Even worse, we don’t care.
Loved it! Wish we had a Zelensky here. Heroes like him do not come around very often….
