Ugly emotions

Yesterday I was commiserating with my neighbor about the election and she said that her friend's daughter is African American and kids were yelling Trump! Trump! at her at school and their other friend is Mexican and got a sign on her car which said Now go home! And this is in Portland, Oregon. What must be happening in other more extreme parts of the country? But as we start to see the increased vocalization of these horrible emotions we have to remember that Trump did not cause them he just outed them. Racism, sexism, xenophobia, etc have been festering under the surface in every part of America and because we, liberals, did not want to give any credence to these views we did not address them and thus allowed them to fester. Hillary should never have used the word "unredeemable" but in all honesty that is how a lot of us have viewed those with these viewpoints, as not worthy of our attention because nothing could be done to alter their impressions. I, like so many others, just thought that slowly they would be dragged into this century by information and education about these issues. To some extent that has happened. Apparently Trump supporters were largely uneducated, white men. But not all. And we have to now face that these kind of extreme viewpoints need to be specifically addressed. So...I am calling on all my friends and anyone out there to use your profession and skills to find creative, cathartic solutions to addressing these viewpoints. Yes the idea of giving them any airtime is heinous to most of us, but that has not worked! So what are your thoughts and ideas for finding a way to help release and address these emotions in a constructive way? I don't want a kid yelling at his hispanic classmate, but I need him to be able to express his fear that somehow America is being overrun by illegal immigrants. So as a writer and educator I'm starting to talk to others about going into the schools and doing writing projects which allow for a calm, less hurtful expression of these emotions. That's just a start but it is at least that. I would love to hear your creative ideas (in any realm). No suggestion will be too crazy so let them fly!
