This is a fantastic read Corey! I had no idea about the history of the word “Man” among the founders of jazz music. Nowadays it just blends right into the everyday lexicon but it actually has a deep significant meaning. I especially liked what you wrote in the section titled “We Chose This”. I complain a lot about those currently in power but I have to remind myself that we the people chose this. We already had four years of this, as well as an aborted coup on Jan 6th, 2021 and then said, “Yeah, I think I’d like four more years of this”. I think it would serve us well to refer to Matthew 25:31-46 from time to time. Every single human being has worth
