@marwilliamson are we lying to ourselves by believing democracy has ever existed in the US?
From an authoritarian agenda to unjust economic and criminal policies to manipulation by political parties to outright voter suppression, the undermining of democracy is in full swing even as we speak. Our generation is called to defend it no differently than others. And we will.

No. It’s never been perfect, but at our best we have tried. It’s about every generation “creating a more perfect union”, not pretending that we’ve ever gotten there. But cynicism is just an excuse for not helping.

Yeah. We need to change that…
