Asleep At The Helm

    Today's SONG TO CHEW is "Asleep At The Helm".  It's clear that many of the men 'at the helms' of our "ships of state" around the world have been running us onto the rocks!  It's past time for us men to put aside any of our 'dinosaur-type' thinking, and ask our feminist sisters to take over and chart some different courses to safer harbors; - where women's healthcare is defined by what women need, not by what men allow; - where a person's value is weighed by what's in our heart, and not by how much money is in our pocket; - where elected officials don't lie to our constituencies, and support rich backers, but rather stand up for the needs of our people, and reflect and value the different cultures that we represent; - where people no longer live under the threat of nuclear annihilation; - where we receive quality health care as a right, supported and run by our government; - where children and youth are valued and well fed, ... and where kids learn how to value themselves, because the adults around them know how to do that as well; - where all the diverse people value our many cultures, races, religions, sexual orientations and identities, blended and shared with each other.  And it's not just a place, it's a state of mind that reflects on what we do and how we do it, so we can alter and change systems around us, and fix them to work more fairly and better for all of us.  With the willingness to listen and pay attention, and the courage to take action, we can make changes that will lift us all.  Please register and vote, and get your friends to the polls, especially if they've been "Asleep At The Helm"!* E-mail/ Website ~ [email protected] ~ www.peteralsop.com * FaceBook.com/WeLikePeterAlsop* Youtube.com/peteralsop ~ videos* Patreon.com/peteralsop ~ support my music, podcast & other artistic endeavors* Songs To Chew ~ subscribe - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/peter-alsops-songs-to-chew/id1446179156 * New!
