I wrote this in response to the Orange Fuhrer’s campaign of racism and hate. It’s for those in need of a safe haven.

This was actually the first song I wrote about a damaged veteran. It is about 50 years older than "Where's My Best Friend Jamie?"

With an incoming administration whose ascendency was predicated upon hating all the "others", I am so grateful to have been part of this critically important event!

Like it or not, we are all the "others."

As our own Weimer Republic becomes the T-Reich, we must be with those identified as "others" by the masters of hate.

Join us on Wednesday 11/20 for Trans Remembrance & Resilience Vigil in Stanwood.

I'll be there to sing "Come On In"
