The 1950s were not perfect and they were especially bad for women and minorities,the LGBTQ community, anyone with mental health issues, victims of domestic violence, child abuse, sex abuse, sexual harassment. It was harder to get a formal education. Schools were segregated. Smoking was rampant. People died from all cancers. I wouldn’t want to go back.
I will be part of the landscape. I will have raised my children and they their own to believe in equality, love without borders, and diversity as more than words. They will be respectful, responsible, and resilient. They will work together for a better world. Someday our society will look beyond race, gender, religion, and other things which divide us. We will finally just become humans nothing more and nothing less.
This last paragraph should become everyone’s oath to themselves and all others.
