Thanks for your thoughtful writing. I found myself nodding in agreement with virtually your entire essay. I’m finding hope in my teenage nieces. Three different souls, but each is very kind, confident and driven in their own way. I can have meaningful conversations with each of them and, although I do fear for their futures, I have hope that they will ultimately contribute to better lives for themselves and hopefully for women in this confusing country.

Young people can bring us so much hope, thanks for that reminder. I’m glad you have your nieces for that! Kindness is so important.
