Ignore the media
I am thinking that most people are reasonable, and good and that the media caters to the the loud mouth bigots simply because they are, well, loud.
I would like to believe that the majority of the every day people I run into in my life are live and let live kinda folks. This theory bears out in the people I meet and the students I teach but sometimes I forget because of the hate spewed by the media. I need to remain scrupulous in my choices to ignore the jerkfaces of the media and focus on the many many people I see every day. I think that this is the only way I can preserve myself from loosing hope for our future.
