Ring the bells (ring the bells) that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything (there is a crack in everything)
That’s how the light gets in
— From the song “Anthem” by Leonard Cohen

This verse really fits the year 2020. The issues of global warming, gender rights, misogyny, and systemic racism have been brought out from the darkness and into the light so the world can examine them and hopefully, through education and self-awareness, shed light on these problems and offer solutions.
