Wednesday Protest in Montpelier
In recent weeks the American people have watched as the newly installed bad-faith administration rapidly dismantles the precarious system of checks and balances our government relies on to function.
They have not only attacked the basic rights of immigrants, women, queer-folk, and people of color, but they have chosen to strike at the core of our democracy as well.
Current events in this country closely resemble those just prior to some of the darkest moments in human history. It can leave us feeling powerless. For me, it feels as if my car is skidding towards a pile-up and someone has just cut the breaks.
History judges the silent as complicit. If you are also looking for a way to get involved and take a stand, I urge you to consider attending this Wednesday’s protests. If you can’t attend, spread the word and help find people who can.
We are not alone. We are Americans, and we know what freedom costs.
