Consider these words from Eleanor Roosevelt, performed by Chor Leoni:
In the course of history We are where universal human rights begin In the small places Close to home There comes a time when humanity is called to a shift The places where every woman, man, and child Seeks equal justice Equal dignity without discrimination To a new level of consciousness To reach a higher moral ground We shall look in vain We shall look in vain We shall look in vain for progress in the larger world We shall look in vain In the course of history We are where universal human rights begin Close to home That time is now
(My thanks to Eleanor Roosevelt and Chor Leoni.)
