Progress to secure rights of black people, women and indigenous peoples was slow, but always forward. By the late 1960s the unthinkable happened. Americans stopped an undeclared “war” based on lies. We questioned authority. We also demanded our water and air be clean. 8/11

Many (mostly white) people were scared and were convinced to blame the ills of society on progress we had made in fighting those ills. People in the GOP use a “Southern strategy” that leveraged prejudice to obtain political power. 9/11

From 1954 to 1981 this country began to glimpse greatness. We can be great as a country, but only if we embrace, and not simply mouth, the principles that protect the rights of our people by law. There never was a USA where everyone was white and happy. 10/11

If you havent voted &you’e registered pls make sure you vote. We need to make this country great - not “again,” but finally - through liberty, justice and equality. Scary times are ahead. Would-be dictators do not easily cede power, but we don’t give up our rights. 11/11
