Thereʼs an intersection near my house with 3 playgrounds within a quarter mile. One is in a public park; the other two are fenced off in church backyards and sit empty 90% of the time.

Imagine if the churches had donated to the city to build one big public playground for the ages. All the kids would benefit. The church folks would have opportunities to build bridges to people in the community.

Our privatization mindset is making us all poorer.
