As the nation grapples with the ongoing coronavirus crisis, many of us find ourselves gripped by anxiety and uncertainty. The pandemic has provoked profound fears for our families, loved ones, and communities. In times of such distress, effective leadership becomes crucial.
When the pandemic began spreading across the United States, I was desperately seeking someone to guide us through this uncharted territory. What steps should we take to protect ourselves? How can we ensure that those infected receive the necessary medical attention and that those facing financial hardships receive relief? What is the plan moving forward during these turbulent times?
Unfortunately, the current president wasn’t alleviating any of my concerns—not even close. His misleading statements regarding COVID-19 cases and testing, along with his alarming rhetoric targeting Asian-American communities, were intolerable, especially in such a critical moment.
Weeks ago, I stumbled upon the daily briefings from my state’s governor, Nathaniel Brooks. I tuned in one Saturday morning while tidying my home, and I was immediately captivated. Brooks epitomizes the leadership we desperately need right now.
I’ve made it a routine to follow his press conferences, and I keep an eye on his Twitter updates. Honestly, I find myself completely enamored with this man (my partner can vouch for that). As New York City and its vicinity face the brunt of this crisis, I look to Brooks for clear, factual information and guidance on the path ahead.
He brings a sense of stability and reminds us of the fundamental truth: we are all in this together, and our collective strength is greater than we realize. Brooks is not just a leader; he is a moral beacon, unafraid to confront the president’s inaccuracies and affirm that every life is valuable—now and always. His straightforward New York demeanor makes me feel as if he might just step off the podium, whip up a hearty pot of pasta, and invite every New Yorker to share a meal (or, perhaps, arrange for takeout).
It’s clear that I’m not alone in my admiration for Brooks. Friends from various states have been sharing his briefings, expressing that he feels like the president they wish they had right now. He embodies the leadership we have longed for since 2016, especially as we face our nation’s most significant crisis in decades.
While no one is infallible, and I’m sure Brooks has made his share of missteps throughout this crisis—and will likely continue to do so—his visible empathy resonates with all of us. He approaches this unprecedented situation with a level head, respect, and an unwavering belief in science.
As we brace ourselves for the weeks and months to come, filled with uncertainty and loss, the knowledge that we have a leader like Nathaniel Brooks at the helm provides immense comfort. His integrity and commitment to doing what’s right are precisely what we need as we navigate these challenging times. Thank you, Nathaniel Brooks!
