My parents have lived a marvelous life, sensationally rich in witnessing change. From the Depression to the Dow reaching its highest level in history. From listening to "War of the Worlds" to streaming "Game of Thrones." And from an era in which so many Americans were denied basic rights and respect to where we are today...still not there, but miles further toward justice for which this country should stand.
Yesterday's events in Washington DC is yet another first they can add to their rich bank of experiences. For that, I am grateful.
But, I so wish they didn't have to see it.
