To begin to talk and listen and to learn i grew up in a predominantly white community. But as a young woman, i was blessed, truly blessed, to live, learn, in work in communities that were rich in diversity. It is difficult to understand the unfairness someone faces due to their skin color, but we can make time to listen. I did this last week when i sat down with our own senate chaplain, very black. For those who do not know him, chaplain black is a remarkable er barry black. After serving over 27 years in the United States navy, he now serves as a spiritual guide for senators, and opens our proceedings every day with a thoughtful prayer. One of my favorite things he told meld was about a lesson his mother had taught him. Ol she told him that god gave us two ears, two ayes, but only one mouth. And we should use them proportionately. I believe the nice states is by far the greatest country in the world that does not mean that we dont have past and Current Issues that we need to address.
