There is no time for infighting or tribalism or self-centered egotism or internal division. We need a clear-eyed focus on the threats to our democracy. We have all unwittingly been enlisted into a fight we did not wish to join. The circumstances in which we find ourselves require us to step out of the presumed safety of our isolated corners and to stand up for what we believe in and urgently pursue the world we want to live in and a more livable future.
