06 Dr Twyla Baker Building a Better Society

Sure I feel like with the essential understandings we are attempting to build a better society that we are trying to reach our full potential are who we could be as people of the whole and in order to do that you have to understand who your neighbor is and you have to be willing to step it step outside of your comfort zone and you have to dispel the fear there’s just so much fear in our state and that’s not what I want for my state because I love this place it I love I’ve my blood has loved this place before there was any type of state lines around it I’ve loved this land forever and we deserve more our children deserve better we need to center ourselves around that love and I feel that we have so much to contribute to each other to everybody all directions all races all right all the relatives and I have the idea that there’s there’s lots of differences yes but there’s also a common thought of humanity and if we can just start moving in that direction and acknowledging each other’s differences and celebrating them the beauty of them not so much the melting pot stuff that’s a whole nother story but seeing each other for who we actually are and recognizing that and there’s a lot of there’s there’s a lot of power to be found in that and our children will be so much better for it if we can just kind of start to having these conversations and start sharing and start laughing start you know doing the things that we have bringing all of the gifts that we have to the table
