We are measured by how well we care for our most vulnerable

May 4, 2009

I saw the film about Nathaniel Anthony Ayers tonight and just read this story about him.  The film is not always pretty and many times I cringed.  I also witnessed dignity and incredible respect.  I saw south central LA street life from the safe view of a truck window driven by an illegal Mexican immigrant a few years back.  It was hard to explain to my friend whose English was limited why I was crying as we drove by entire families and people in wheel chairs living in the worst of urban decay. One of the world’s richest countries and cities!
