It’s difficult for me to hyper-focus my hopes on the Galesburg area only, but my hopes for humanity at-large certainly apply to my own hometown area. My hope is that we could end wars, “turning our swords into plows”, we could grow and share more uncontaminated foods, we could protect our air, food and water quality, that we could protect our children and residents from violence, from sexual assaults, drug and other epidemics, that we could protect our social safety networks from political onslaughts, that we could rein-in blatant greed and corruption. As the cultural revolution rolls on, more indictments roll out, the 2018 political season heats up, the congressional races swing blue, I hope our “union” can hold together as we go forward with progressive values ascending, gaining awareness, widening perceptions, acting from our clearest integrity and highest ideals to join the fight for the soul of our democracy.

My hopes for the Galesburg area in 2018, and the world.
