My name is Dr. Rabia Said. From time to time, I will be writing on several topics that are aimed at encouraging and advancing opportunities for everyone, particularly the less-privileged. While I will be writing on general issues affecting us all today as we live our lives in a very challenging world, I will be focusing a lot on the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and how we can harness and preserve our scarce resources to expand opportunities for all, and improve our lives. I ask that you kindly join my blog by following it. Please visit often and drop any comments and suggestions you may have. I will surely appreciate your ideas. I thank you so much. Rabia S.

Greetings On September 17, 2020, I published the first part of my thoughts about American generosity. I intended to conclude that narration in this Part II, one month later, but situations kept making it difficult. I am glad I can now finish what I have truly seen about the generosity of Americans on both personal levels and collectively as a nation. A (re)Introduction A superficial view of current news about racial, ideological, and political tensions in America would suggest that America is an unkind and tumultuous country.
