Dear Reader,
I don't usually make political posts on here. While it is good to celebrate the victory of the president-elect, we must not stop here. We must push for justice for everyone. We must push for the end of the detention centers/concentration camps and the abomination that is ICE. We must push for human rights across the board. BLM needs to be supported so that people who are not lily white get a fair shot at the 'American dream.' We need to make sure that women's reproductive rights remain respected. We need to stop human trafficking. We need to body check the white supremacists into a few walls when they decide that it's fine to start physically intimidating anybody who doesn't meet their niche concept of a 'real American'.
Yes, be happy. I am. It is a victory. We have won the battle but we have not yet won the war. And there is a subtle war going on right now for the very essence of this nation. Let us not become complacent and let ourselves be fooled into thinking that the Democratic party is our saviors. The Democratic party is not the reason why Joseph Biden is president elect. It is the people.
It is time for the sleeping giant to awake and slap down the neo-fascists. There's still work to do. Take a breather. Get a drink and some food. We've got a brief reprieve but we're going to have to pick up that shield again and start marching for justice again soon.
