@NPR is doing its annual reading and tweeting of the #DeclarationOfIndependence. 246 years ago a group of men felt it so important that they risked everything to defy a King & start a path for a democratic republic. Today we’re seeing those values attacked by the stolen #SCOTUS
The #AntiDemocraticParty of the GOP passing laws & ideas to circumnavigate the will of #Americans. On this #IndependenceDay2022, it is time to not celebrate what happened 246 years ago, but to honor it by standing up for our #FellowAmericans ensuring that #Rights and #Freedoms
Are actually for all of us. #Autonomy is a #Right. Not being shot because you look dangerous or are frightened or just went to school #Right. Loving yourself & having your ability to have your own family is a #Right. #Healthcare is a #HumanRight (#AbortionIsHealthcare)
Earning a livable wage is a #right. Being able to live your life that doesn’t harm others ability is your #right. We are watching the “my #rights” group on not wearing a #mask tell everyone else that their #rights don’t matter. This #IndependenceDay vow to stand for #freedom
Be #brave and #VoteBlueToSaveDemocracy or none of us will have any #rights left it will all be sold to #DarkMoney groups. Our #Republic if we can keep it. Requires #empathy #love #justice & #hope. Many of our so called #leaders have chosen #greed #hatred #injustice & #power over
#America. Stand for #America means to stand for the #oppressed the #Hopeless and the #hopeful to deny #Fascism and embrace #democracy to know that #AllOfUs are created #EQUAL &should be treated as such. Happy #IndependenceDay to those celebrating the signing. Now let’s perfect it
