Q & A

Why Doesn’t America Love US!!!!!????TOO
            LeBron James on Twitter, 30 May 2020


I know that love is ultimately the only answer to mankind's problems. 
And I'm going to talk about it everywhere I go. 
I know it isn't popular to talk about it in some circles today. 
I'm not talking about emotional bosh when I talk about love, 
I'm talking about a strong, demanding love. 
And I have seen too much hate. 
I've seen too much hate on the faces of sheriffs in the South. 
I've seen hate on the faces of too many Klansmen and too many 
White Citizens Councilors in the South to want to hate myself, 
because every time I see it, 
I know that it does something to their faces and their personalities 
and I say to myself that hate is too great a burden to bear. 
I have decided to love. 
If you are seeking the highest good, 
I think you can find it through love.
