A Privilege I Often Forget

I was in Branford Manor today talking to another 65 of you. I had a great couple of conversations on doorsteps but on one in particular I had to face a difficult truth. It is easier for me to feel comfortable and welcome in my own town than many of my neighbors. Two gentlemen told me that just going to the grocery store made them feel unwelcome, never mind interactions with the authorities.

As often as you can, be kind to strangers, they may be your neighbors.
