Fantastic event right now. @RiazPatel just said this amazing thing: "For content, hope is key. What you look for is what you see. If you put more hope out, people will see more hope in their own lives."

I agree
Asking a politician to do the right thing against their own interests and job security is almost always a waste of time - it’s only by changing incentives that we can expect a better result.

I think there are always 2 parts: 1) Why they pick up a gun 2) How they access the gun The problem is never either/or. It’s some combination of both. They don’t separate the children by political party when they shoot them. I think we should work together 🙏🏽

I think this is a LARGE part of the problem #ConnectEffect
It’s not right vs. left, it’s the people on the inside of the system vs. everyone else.
