We shall not forget
That when they learned 70% of deaths were minorities, the national plan was shelved!
That it is our voices and our votes that they are trying to silence!
Examples need to be made so that never again an elected official thinks it is ok to steal the voices of the people.

It is not about revenge; it is about setting an example!
It is not for nothing that we raised our voices in this election!
It is not for nothing that we risked our lives in lines to vote!
It is because we are done!

Done bearing the brunt of disasters, economic or other.
Done dying in the streets for acting like citizens do
Done being denied our American rights
We are the ones paying the price for your silence
We are the ones paying the price of your complicit behaviors
We are the ones who shall decide what to forgive or forget
And today we decide that that time is past
We have done enough forgiving
and you’ve done enough forgetting

Today we need accountability
Today… we set examples!

Let us settle some things right here and now, I know lies flow easily from your lips to trumps ears, however we will no longer stand by and be silent.
The election was rigged, by the trumpers who went on a campaign against mail-in voting in the middle of a pandemic, sabotaged the USPS, tried to intimidate voters, and tried to steal the votes of black voters. Yes, you trumpers did that.
Biden & Harris refused to say what they would do if they were elected? Their plans were spoken out loud, loaded onto their sites, while republicans had a “we will follow trump” platform.

1 - America The Ugly

It took a man like trump to show us the other side of the Leader of the free world, the underbelly of the most so-called democratic country in the world, and it is ugly.
2 - Some of us, mostly the black and brown minorities, already knew this ugly side, we had seen what was hidden beneath the polite smiles and fake platitudes, we had born the brunt of this ugliness for decades.
3- More than 68 million Americans voted to have trump for a second term, 4 more years, some have taken to the streets to demand it, thousands have put their lives at risks attending covid rally spreaders to cheer him on and the rest of America is asking themselves how?

1/ 8 This morning democrats are Shellshocked

The results are not in yet, and we do not know who won. But the closeness of this race has more than a million people asking how? how can it be this close? How can nearly half of the country have voted for trump?
2/8 I will tell you why and you will not like it.

Democrats targeted the wrong audience, they thought this election was about the economy, the virus and decency. This election was always about racism.
3/8 I kept hearing over and over again people saying, we are better than this, this is not America, when I brought up race… most people are not racists, has been shouted proudly across all social platforms.
