If I were ever in possession of a genie and I am granted seven wishes. My first wish would be the abolition of all forms of racism and prejudice. My second wish would be to end disease and hunger. My third wish would be to end all wars. My fourth wish would be for […]
Feeling powerless is very demoralizing. It’s knowing what the fix is but realizing you are stymied and therefore unable to change the situation. The human psyche is vulnerable.
