Our ideals and democracy have survived a terrible assault. Domestic terrorists attempted a violent coup, Congress was evacuated during the peaceful transition of power and blood was spilled in our nation’s capital, a symbol of democracy and freedom. The Trump rioters embodied the dangers of misinformation, fascism and our current political climate. While this is the darkest day since Sept. 11 that I can remember, maybe, just maybe, we will realize that the way back into the light is together.
