Topic 4
TODAY we live in a country that is polially so polarized that it prevents government from getting anything done, both at the federal and state level. We are being torn apart by some of the ugliness we see on television each evening, and we are led by the most controversial president in American history. I am 76 years old and have served in public service for more than 50 years as a mayor and a leader of nonprofit organizations, and I have never been so worried for our country as I am today. Even during the civil rights movement in the ’60s and the much-hated war in Vietnam we held out hope for a better America.
When I want to feel better, I take a long walk through my neighborhood. I live in an older neighborhood near downtown Bremerton, a neighborhood that is diverse in terms of people’s age, their polis, which church they attend, the color of their skin and their income levels.
What I see are people who to organize a weekly farmers market, hold festivals, have food drives for the needy or help raise funds to upgrade one of our neighborhood parks. Their goal is to create a community where people live longer, healthier, happier lives. Shouldn’t that be the goal of any of our government institutions? Shouldn’t every action taken by our government have some positive impact on our ability to live healthier, happier, longer lives? Instead, our lawmakers spend more time fighting, without a willingness to compromise, only to end up getting nothing done.
I have come to believe that the local neighborhood might be the most effective and powerful tool we have today that can impact the quality of our lives. Organized neighborhoods can support local business, provide resources for entrepreneurs, help with job training, create a strong neighborhood business association, and encourage neighbors to buy local. They can improve our health with community gardens, walking clubs and walk-in health clinics.
Today, we should all do all we can to activate our neighborhoods by encouraging neighborhood associations, empowering neighborhoods to positively impact the community, and provide a framework and support for grass-roots projects.
Organized neighborhoods can connect people through neighborhood clubs, block parties and can use technology for staying in touch and sharing information. We can work together and plant more trees, organize a tool lending library, and share our talents by offering classes and workshops. This is the America I want to live in, and it is right here in my own neighborhood.
