On Monday night, the president stood on a stage and said, “Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego.” And the crowd applauded.
San Diego is my home. It’s my family. It’s my friends. It’s the people I love most, and hearing that talked about like it’s a punchline or a “small price to pay” breaks my heart and lights me up with rage at the same time.
Whatever the intent, that should never be okay. We live in the United States of America. We are supposed to be one.
So I’m singing. Because I will stand by you. By my family, by my friends, by everyone in this country who is feeling afraid right now.
I hate that this is what we have to hear. I hate that people are living in fear because of what’s said from the top. But I refuse to let fear be the loudest voice in the room.
Check on your people. Hold them close. Stand by each other.
