About 150 athletes in blue Special Olympics tracksuits filled the Clementine Hall on Saturday, and the pope told them the world needs their example. The same week, Trump’s board shut the Kennedy Center rather than give up his name on JFK’s memorial.
Knowing that Trump once mocked a disabled part, it would be a national disgrace to put his name on the Kennedy Center. Thank you for this refreshing article!
While reading this I thought of former students I had taught who participated in Special Olympics. One rode horses for her event. Sports teaches athletes many lessons, the most important one is working together as a team and self-discipline. The Kennedys, for all the faults of the men, brought a lot of positive change to this country, the Peace Corps and Special Olympics are but two.
I helped coach a high school Special Olympics team many years ago. The events were always so fun and inspiring! What a treasure Pope Leo is! I just received his new book today - looking forward to reading it.
You may or may not be aware, but the Trump regime is currently seeking a way to overturn a long time Supreme Court ruling protecting the rights of these most vulnerable amongst us, in an attempt to reinstitutionalize them. Please contact your congressional members to voice you're opposition to such a horrendous outcome.
