If you want to go out and do something fun somewhere in the US on the Fourth of July, I don’t think that makes you unconscionable or demonstrates the character of a hypocrite.

And there are LOTS of opportunities!

Joy can be an act of resistance and there are still perspectives that can be celebrated, even if you need to take a break from some of your ideological angst to do so.

Take a break! Check out the options. And if this year doesn’t work for you, then you should DEFINITELY be thinking about next year ;)

Stay safe out there,
