We’re moving 10,000 low-income children off the child care voucher waitlist — at absolutely no cost to their families. Eligible families with children ages 6 weeks to 13 years, and through age 19 for children with special needs, will be invited to apply for a voucher on a rolling basis.

Here is a thought-provoking article from one of my favorite people on this planet, John Liotti. While John’s take is primarily focused on the Christian response to the vulnerable, he points out that Jewish, Muslim, and Hindu religions also include empathy, compassion and charity as central tenets.

When Did Empathy Become a Sin?

Christianity has always required more than the right politics: loving the person in front of us.

This is an excellent analysis that first defines what corruption is, then rates every modern world leader known for being corrupt, along with every US president since Eisenhower. The results are surprising only in their completeness and scale. Nixon scored a 41. Putin scores an 83. Trump is at 91.

Because I’m white, it was easy for me to conflate the solidarity we witnessed on the ground among New Yorkers on 9/11 for some kind of colorblind national unity in the months and years that followed. The reality is and was vastly different.
