A coalition of left and center Democrats (Once known as center and right Democrats when I was younger...) made this happen. The Left now needs to hold the Dems feet to the fire. Health care reform now. Black lives matter. Immigration reform now.
Immediate and decisive action against the Covid-19 pandemic. Stop the spread of armed white supremacy lawlessness. Make police protectors again instead of armed thugs. Disband ICE. Reform the courts.
For God’s sake, address the core problem of consolidation of all wealth in the hands of a tiny, tiny few. Pay workers what they are worth! Tax the ultra-wealthy. Address the economic suppression of non-whites and women.
Defend the rights of all humans to love as they choose to love and live as they choose to live! Nothing is more sure now than there is no more room for the hate directed at LGBTQ+ people in our country. It has to stop.
We’re going to hear ”We can’t do everything at once.” Do. Not. Accept. Excuses. Don’t let your voices be muted. Don’t go back to being forgotten. Those of us with privilege must not allow this. It is up to us to put aside how we have lived so ALL can live with dignity and hope.
Make no mistake. Hate is alive and will not fade away easily. It may get worse, fast, as the Trumpist horde erupts in spasms of anger. Stand up. Stand firm. Do not give in to fear. Do not be intimidated.
