Public kinship is a concept which says, We are publicly related, do unto others as you would have both people do unto you. Very simple mantra that that is just treat people the way you want to be treated. It's all about self assessment. It's about something I do.

To me the assumption of a or the, common culture is the key to all of this.

If we as Americans do not understand yet, and this is all Americans, black, white, purple, whatever you are, we do have different ethnic cultures, obviously, ethnic groups have their own ways of doing things, and their own causes, but a huge society like our society, which is multifaceted, multiracial, and multicultural, has to have an overall common culture that we all can aspire to, can assert as ours, and that is not doesn't belong to this person, or that person, but that I helped to build that culture. Without a common culture, we will destroy the country.

And most people do not know the history of the Statue of Liberty. We all think we do. And we think that it was erected for welcome immigrants to the United States, which is actually not true. And was not the reason that it was erected. And of course, there is a story behind it. With may explain why you don't know the full reason.

Truth changes every day. The world was flat, we now say it's round. And the truth changes, because there is this interplay between religion and science, one which says it is fact based, the other which says it is fact and faith based for more faith based than fact based. In America, we're in that ditch between the two.

The answer is, I think there is in this younger American generation, a more open idea of who they are as they explore themselves in ways that we could never have imagined. It may be that old people like us become the mitigators, the midwives, this difficult and unkind world dies, and a new one is born. Because that is the struggle, the struggle of a new world, and an old world and a new one coming into into play. I do believe that
