poem: Citizen of Dark Times


We are worth fighting for!

 

This a dark time for America and the world. 

This election loss is a significant blow to democracy and will have tangible repercussions. 

AND we have a lot of love among us that we can lean into for solace, support, and cheer. We must come together and take care of one another.

For now, remember to breathe. Allow yourself to grieve and cry.

And then, join us to process, connect, regroup and organize for what’s next.

We DO have power and agency to strategically block the MAGA agenda and stop bad things from happening. When we use it, we have an impact.

We continue to firmly believe in the goodness of humanity and the power we have when we work together.

 

Together, we will survive and thrive.

Stop Project 2025

How will Project 2025 impact you & issues you care about?

Project 2025 seeks to take away freedoms from every aspect of our lives.

From sabotaging our elections to cutting the resources we need for education and from eliminating Social Security and Medicare to dictating the religion we can practice, Project 2025 details how the MAGA movement seeks to take away freedoms from every aspect of our lives.

It includes banning contraception and taking away our freedom to choose if and when to start a family, eliminating corporate regulations, and allowing discrimination.
