I had a great time today speaking about Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address and the politics of humility at the Heartland Unitarian Universalist Church in Carmel. Rebuilding a robust democratic culture begins with sharing a vision of it with our fellow citizens.

I had a great time today looking around Red Dog Books here in Indy! Found a lot of classics for my literature collection.
