Leave people to walk by on the other side
Hi, what does it mean "on the other side" in this sentence- leave people to walk by on the other side? thanks
What concerns me is that I’m beginning to see possibly the re-emergence of that total traducing of what I regard as being the basis spiritual nature of this country, where we do care about society, where we do believe in communities, where we do not leave people to walk by on the other side. That isn’t happening now.
