WHAT YOU
SAID ABOUT ...
‘a time to heal’ Readers agreed with the
cover line of the Nov. 23 issue but disagreed
about what exactly America needed to heal
from. Mahmood Hassan of Phoenix pointed
a finger at President Trump, who he argued
has “never cared for
anything except what
matters for himself,”
while Mary Lou
St. Cyr of Mesa, Ariz.,
criticized Democrats
for spending “the past
four years undermining
and fighting anything
President Trump tried
to do.”
Victoria J. Heil
of Chandler, Ariz.,
suggested that the close
Electoral College results
were due to the perceived “authenticity” of
Trump’s not hiding what he’s thinking—but
others worried that now that Joe Biden has
won, the President was not thinking of the
country. “The longer Trump delays conceding
the election, the more time he has to convince
himself that he should take drastic measures
to remain in power,” warned Austin Kuder of
Seven Hills, Ohio. “I believe the Republicans
are, in fact, terrified... of what Trump might
do,” added Lee Rudnicki
of Beverly Hills, Calif.
Pat Sheffels of
Bellevue, Wash.,
recalled one way a
nation divided after
the Vietnam War began
the healing process,
citing the Vietnam
Veterans Memorial
in Washington, D.C.,
and its poignant list of
the war’s dead. “We
need a memorial for
those lost to COVID-19,” Sheffels continued.
“Something that will help us remember that
we are all Americans, all human, all tainted
by this pandemic, and all need to heal in more
ways than just our physical bodies.”‘[Kamala
Harris]
can be the
change in
American
policy and
culture that
is so badly
needed.’RYAN DOWSE,

speak up
and fight
harder for

that we
believe in.’STEWART B. EPSTEIN,

politicsSETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT ▶ In some copies of the Nov. 16
issue, the state of Arizona was colored incorrectly on an electoral map
in “The Big Event, by the Numbers.” The state, which Joe Biden carried,
should have been blue.
