You did it, Shaun. Dude. I can't believe it took this long, but my goodness, you did that. It's powerful to be seen, to be acknowledged. I hope Bernie has now made a path for others to follow suit.

Dear Br Shaun

With sobbing heart (for Bernie) and post-surgery pain you called out Bernie 🫢 and The β€œMuqallibal Qulub”(Turner of the hearts) turned Bernie”s heart 🀲🏼 and gave solace to your heart β™₯️🀲🏼.

Here is proof positive that miracles do happen and I am so happy that Bernie called a genocide a genocide. I’ll bet your letter, Shaun, had a great deal to do with Bernie finding his courage. Thank you for your letter!
