A Black Woman's Open Letter To Kamala Harris

She was not perfect. But perhaps it is unfair that we ask her to be, when the other choice is a man whom none of us would leave our daughters alone with.

This country belongs to all of us. This land is fertilized with the blood of our ancestors. And for those ancestors, we will not yield.

My granddaughter just got home from school and asked me, "grandma are we going to be slaves?" Before I even realized it, I said "hell fucking no" who told you that? She heard it at school.

@nursefrombirth We mourn the passing of democracy, a cherished form of government that has been a beacon of hope and freedom for centuries. Democracy, born out of the ideals of equality, justice, and representation, has succumbed to the forces of corruption, division, and apathy. Throughout its existence, democracy provided a platform for citizens to voice their opinions, participate in decision-making, and hold their leaders accountable. It empowered people to shape their own destiny and create a better future for themselves and their communities. However, in recent years, democracy has been under siege by authoritarianism, populism, and misinformation. The pillars of democracy have been eroded, and the voices of the marginalized and disenfranchised have been silenced. The values of truth, fairness, and respect for human rights have been disregarded in favor of personal gain and power. As we bid farewell to democracy, we must remember the principles it stood for and strive to uphold them in our daily lives. Let us honor the legacy of democracy by standing up for justice, equality, and solidarity. May its memory inspire us to continue the fight for a more just and equitable society. Rest in peace, democracy. You will be dearly missed but never forgotten.

I imagine it will all start with guns being pulled on one another on the House floor. The Scandal is on.

I'm gonna keep my hope and watch them self-destruct.
It is what it is.

@CherNohio Wishing you a beautiful and peaceful day and pray that the Mister is feeling better. Happiest of Birthdays to you.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) called on Americans to not give up in an urgent message on Thursday following President-elect Donald Trump’s election win.

“Let’s get loud and let’s get going because if a young woman in Florida, where a six-week ban is now the law of the land, can get up today and find her way through, we can too,” said the California representative in an interview with Ben Meiselas for the progressive MeidasTouch Network.
