Addressing the USA's destructive cycle of dehumanizing nationalistic violence

Yá'át'ééh my relatives. Today over My Second Cup of Coffee I use the recent 80th anniversary of our nation's nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to address our on-going cycle of dehumanizing nationalistic violence and what we can do to stop it, and (hopefully) begin healing from it.
