Full Text of the Book

America Will Be Great


America will be great when all people feel safe, no matter the color of their skin, no matter where they were born, no matter who they love, and no matter where they do or do not worship.

America will be great when every person has a safe place to sleep at night and enough food to eat each day.

America will be great when every person can go to the doctor and get the medicine and care they need when they are sick.

America will be great when all people can get the education they need to do the work they love.

America will be great when acceptance, understanding, and love are the expectation for handling disagreements or differences.

America will be great when we value all people more than money or power.

America will be great when we see ability, value, and worth in all people.

America will be great when we welcome those from other places, recognizing that we have much to learn from each other, and the possibility of creating a bright future together.

America will be great when we value every person’s work and pay enough money for people to be able to meet all of their needs.

America will be great when we value peace and love equally for all people in all the world.

America will be great when we care about the planet and work to keep our lands, water, air, and habitats clean and safe for all that live there.

America will be great when we, the people, unite to make it so.
