Everyone on the SRRT AC wants civil rights and human rights. Everyone believes in freedom of speech. If this is a childish dream, please let me know. Our internal issues are about being heard-and being heard in a timely manner. I think we can agree on everything else. How do we temper feelings so that ...

Frieda, Great article! I strongly agreed with the point about integrity and how true integrity is reflected through actions, regardless of the words someone uses.
