Welcome back to Coffee in Cases.

Sadly, Allison and I are still practicing social distancing, so this week's episode will be done solo yet again.

In my fantasy world, we would have been back to normal by now, but it appears that'll just be a dream for a little while longer.

So if you're new to Coffee and C cases, please know that our podcast has changed slightly

as our world is adjusting to a global pandemic. While we're being asked to keep our distance

from others, to stay inside what possible, and to not gather in large groups, we ask that you

bear with us as our podcast has changed a little as well. Until we can return to normal,

take care of yourselves.

Do something creative today. Take a moment to just breathe. Call up an old friend to catch up,

share a podcast when you do, write a letter to someone who means something to you, and imagine

the joy on your loved one's face when here she receives that note. It's the small moments of

happiness that we create that can change

our perspectives right now. Thank you for bearing with us and for understanding. We care about you.

We love you guys. Stay together. United in human spirit, even if not physically. Stay safe.

Now, on to this week's episode. We are facing uncertain times sleuth hounds.

Worldwide, we are still trying to overcome an illness that has killed so many and is still

claiming victims today. Right now in the United States, we are also battling racism and

oppression, a fight that should have been settled long before 2020. It amazes me that we live in such an advanced world, yet people still fear for their safety

when they walk up and down the street.

Safety.

The thing our government is supposed to guarantee us.

Safety.
