From the bottom of my heart, I believe that we can be better than this.
(Low bar, I realize, but still.)
We can embrace diversity.
We foster equity.
We can be inclusive.
As a historian, I believe in change.
And as low as I sometimes feel right now, I —WE—are not defeated.

We can celebrate the successes of others.
We can choose people over profits and science over disinformation.
They've thrown a volley of awful at us for the past four weeks, but they are slowing down, and we're ramping up.
And sometimes, people who aren't bad need a kick in the pants to fully commit to being good people.
We're all down at the local watering hole.
Homo sapiens, antelopes, bison, giraffes and lions.
Each group looks, lives, loves differently than the others.
But we all allow access to that watering hole.
That's the reality of it all.
That's what our DNA tells us.
Just sayin'

It takes but one snap that will reverberate throughout the country to make big changes as history has shown us.
I believe in the same things you do, but I understand people will have to fight for it same as our predecessors did.
"...Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join with you in resisting somehow..."
I'm doing what I can and am trying to encourage people not discourage.
Yes there is a snapping point where that might be I have not a clue but war is coming regardless we all know this.
Its also why I use this quote:
"If not me then who? If not now then when?"
Thank u 4 the encouragement; I'm struggling with patients but doing my best I know ppl r scared
Nothing.
The next time we win it all, crush them like cockroaches.
Im pissed. Sorry
