Get ready to think of today's leaders as nothing but successful businessmen. Leader Martin Luther King organized a movement of advancement that can hardly be comprehended. But...let's try.

Little update! What's taking place in the mindful revolution here in this southern town which I've called home since Los Angeles kicked me out?

Over the past year, Richmond has removed at least a dozen monuments of confederate leaders - which have stood since the 1800s - including the towering statue of army general Robert Lee on a horse at a major intersection.

The images - of thousands of locals criss-cross applesauce, engrossing the feature for days until the mayor inventively eighty-sixed it to zero spectacle - are messy and moving.

Several more statues remain. It is staggering, but optimistically so - because the method, pacing, and rote approach to getting them gone has not thus far been a riot, but a knowing cooperation, with hormone-fueled youth zeal as a minor, obligatory detail, but nowhere near the sincere quickening - steady, and certain - of this current. They've stood for a century, so the abrupt unanimous understanding of their absurdity can be an engine to assist, rather than to compel, as the mayor and local bodies study up and do their thang.

AND the Virginia Supreme Court may soon have a chance at a resounding decision in response to two lawsuits against the city, which have been filed to restore statues and prevent further mindful redecorating.

Note: Read the article and find out that it is not a large movement flailing to bring back those statues...it is literally one family. PRIOR to the mindful revolution, we may have been incensed and terrified that two behemouth ideological waves are in a battle about such things. But once meditated upon, once living from ourselves, we can see that is ok. A lot is headed the right way, though we may not understand why the by-rote law must lag behind our ideals. Even "Woke" people will soon actually wake. They're headed in the right direction.
