Question: Collectively, what should we be doing?

Warren: I think that there is . . . there is a requirement to see your neighbor; to love your neighbor as yourself. And what does that mean? It means to want for my neighbor what I want for myself.

I don’t want that for my neighbor. It’s wanting for my neighbor what I want for myself.
