Next is women. I’ve already heard that women shouldn’t be allowed to vote. Let’s get these white nationalists out of office. Boycott, walk out, shut down what’s left of our economy until they’re gone!

I appreciate the ability to do things from my kitchen, if that’s the energy I have that day. Little things often, big things when I can.

Yeah, let’s wait another six weeks. Surely nothing bad will happen in the meantime.

Looks like youigjt have missed an important update in this post: if you read the Thursday item, you will see that tomorrow is a day of action to protect voting rights! Go to NoKings.org for details.

I can’t get to the closest one this weekend at 100 miles away much less to Montgomery. I’m frustrated at National days of “action” scheduled so infrequently that there’s not much actual action, only delayed reactions.

Calling your elected representatives, US, State and Local makes a huge difference! A recent survey confirmed that one phone call has the weight of dozens of voters. The 5051 newsletter offers so many ways to stay active beyond the rallies on a weekly basis so I would encourage you to look at what you CAN do.

That's supposed to say "you might" in the first sentence. 🙃

We’re in this for the long haul so keeping buoyant is imperative!

Taking stock of what keeps me buoyant: Friends, family, gatherings with neighbors and sense of purpose. Once a month weekend adventures, walks and running.

I have a goal of 10 postcards a day now. Doing it all day every day was too much. Instead, with my extra time I am using Resistbot, doing stay at home things suggested by the political leaders I follow, and attending more online meetings to keep me fired up. I only attend live events when my daughter can go to keep her octogenarian mother out of trouble.
