This Thanksgiving, gratitude for loving family and the creative community of Jerry Jazz Musician who I consider friends are at the centerpiece of my thoughts.
And yes, so is faith that we can overcome the toxicity of hatred within our communities – and within us – and hold the scourge of evil at bay through our ability to exhibit profound goodness.
