John Schwartz, a 57-year-old meditation teacher, got a brilliant idea, probably while meditating.
To show America’s extreme displeasure with Donald Trump’s policies and the unheard-of evolution of America into a place where the rich get richer, Mr. Schwartz wants all Americans to meditate for 24 hours.

“They’redismantlingsomanythingsinthiscountry,”Schwarzsaid.“Ifpeoplearegoingtostepinandmakeachangethatbenefitsthepeople,it’snow.”
