Charlottesville's August 2017 was not about Confederate statues, but proof of what can happen when our institutions' top-down ringleaders betray the essence of, The Land of the Free -- choosing to grant Carte Blanche to those fearful of losing supremacy over others -- whether possessed by the evils of NRA gunmen, corporatism's sexual predators or government bigots.
Neither paralegal Heather Heyer, nor her Mother, Susan Bro began August 12, 2017, expecting or hoping to become media sensations, but unlike the dozens injured that day in Charlottesville by a hate driven car -- death snatched a daughter and enlisted a mother -- for the work yet to be done.
Like mothers everywhere, knowing the fear hate breeds clings desperately to the defense of its Last Hurrah -- Susan Bro, nonetheless persists.
Let us sing praises for and follow the example of Mothers!
