On this fourth of July I am wearing black. For me personally this Fourth of July is a time to briefly mourn what has come to pass in this country and then to spend my energy being thankful that I live in a country where things can change without a military coup. Or at least without one here. Today is a day for reflection in the U.S.. Where are we, where do we want to go, and what are we doing to get there?

I am freaking proud to live in this country. I just wish it wasn't so completely fucked at the moment. Le sigh.
