Being close to those in power is not so much a "privilege" as it is a responsibility to hold them accountable.

Something our media struggles with.

How did appeasement work for Europe in 1938?

And unfortunately, Europe cannot count on the United States this time to stop the takeover

As another old(er) white guy I am sure I also would be shocked and distressed at what my sisters and other girls/women around me experienced, and still experience.

Just means we have to work harder to fight the misogyny and inequality in our world
