Like many people, I’m currently finding the world especially heavy, fuelled by discord and mistrust, seeded with tribalism and venom. It feels like all the love is being sucked out through a plastic straw stuck up the nostril of a dying turtle. I went to see Obama because I wanted to feel hope again, or Hope, because his hope always had a capital H.But Hate is in fashion. And as former world leader Obama said on this night: “We need to break the cycle of us and them.”That’s his starting point. I went to see Obama because I wanted to feel better about the world.
