Thank you for this article. It gave me back some hope. This issue bothers me in a way that is difficult to explain. I write and I teach and I see how this hype is erasing the human willingness to engage in life, savour experiences, play with sensibilities, learn about differences, build a sensibility, and value human intelligence. It's very disheartening. I hope that some of us can find another way and preserve our human brilliance. Thanks, again.

It is difficult to explain, isn't it? In so many ways, it seems obvious to me why we should be worried and working to make sure what I see as basic/fundamental parts of our humanity and human experience, but it clearly isn't obvious to many.

You're absolutely right, we should be worried and it isn't obvious to many. I took the call to remain human and stand by that decision whatever the cost many years ago. I hope that I can be the clarity of my own example and I hope that it can inspire others to be unapologetically human. Yours is a necessary voice. Thank you, again.
