Busy doing whatever the HELL I please because, born in 1956 -- I'm ALSO "retired."😆

Your impression is right. While I know it's more than the parties or America itself is going to give, my Black American journey through this life here has taught me that you CAN force them to do the right thing if you can convince enough folks to join you. It's really hard, but I DO believe it's do-able, which is why I continue to fight (I have sons and grandchildren who'll be here long after I'm gone after all). And as you say, those that can, should "TRY DAMMIT!

A paradigm shift is DEFINITELY needed, Man. I admit, I'm neither as technologically advanced, nor even knowledgeable about A.I. -- but my old ass is willing to learn (which is why I follow some younguns here on Medium who are). Whatever can help us live better together is worth the try to me.

My best to you as well, Jeffrey! My youngest son now has a 2 year-old son whose "discovering" is a constant source of enjoyment for me and the husband. He cracks me the hell up and gives his "MeeMaw" (I think they're watching too much "Big Bang Theory/Young Sheldon" over there!😆) so many hugs and kisses I can't NOT enjoy him!
