Equal

The name of this book is Equal—simple and to the point. My desire is for all to think and feel that way—whether they do or not. This book was started well over a year ago to whet this thinking and feeling. Then on November 8, 2016—boom!—the historic election of Donald Trump. Many cheered—many cried. No one was more surprised than me; my equanimity was shattered and I was stunned. Nevertheless, I decided to publish this book with a short epilogue. It was not meant to be provocative, though it is. It was not meant to be divisive, though it is. I do hope it will be part of the healing so necessary in our country. I look forward to hearing from others with the rest of this process as we go forward. I hope you find this book informative and try to understand why I wrote it and why I published it, for I am one who cried.
