Even though I never lived in Minnesota as did Chris Wurst and Hamse Warfa, like thousands of people all over the world I am alarmed by what's happening in Minneapolis. Hearing Hamse Warfa describe the scene like one he experienced in a refugee camp in Rwanda is both chilling and apropos. His own story is one of great success, and he charmingly names the good experiences he had in the USA, transcending the obstacles of being a "Black person in America" --taking a plane for the first time, enjoying San Diego sun, and because of his wife's wishes moving to Minnesota because there were seasons there. He sounds like a man for all seasons, and I hope Minnesota and the rest of our nation will rise above this murderous "season" and those who propagate it.
