🧵On November 11, 1864 Union General William Sherman, Union soldiers begin destroying all railroads, factories + commercial buildings in Atlanta, GA —anything that could help support the confederacy's military/economic goals. The actions dealt a crippling blow to the confederacy during the Civil War.

The Montgomery Bus Boycott lasted 381 days.
Black people walked, rode bikes, car pooled or took cabs but they did not ride the bus.
They suffered, sacrificed and endured. There was personal and professional pain.
For 381 days.
These eight Senators didn't last 41 days.

one of the greatest testaments that white supremacy is real is the way everyone's religions are just seen as their culture, fables, myths, creation "stories," and it's "just their culture" and a reflection of those specific people, EXCEPT EUROCHRISTIANITY. LMAO
That folklore is wild lol. Also that’s their interpretation of who God is and I don’t understand why nvm…
Imagine serving God all your life and he OFFERS YOU as a pawn to the devil to basically destroy your life, just so he can flex and be like:
“Told you he’d still serve me 😌 I’m that nigga right???”
“Told you he’d still serve me 😌 I’m that nigga right???”

When Ida B Wells, Ellen Harris, Claudette Colvin, JoAnn Robinson and Rosa Parks refused to take a seat in the back, they all knew it wasn't about sitting in the front.
It was about democracy.
It was about freedom.
They knew the pain would be worth it.
These 8 US Senators don't understand that?

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.
The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.
Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.
One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

81% of the Democratic base in a poll last week said Congress should “refuse to approve a budget unless it includes extending these tax credits, even if it means the government remains shut down.” But even 81% of the Dem base is not enough to get all Senate Democrats on board. #Pathetic

And oh...there is a huge difference between rural driving and city driving. In the city, it may take you 30 minutes to go 10 miles. In small, rural towns a 30 minute drive likely means you have gone 30 miles. None of these places were close to each other. I was driving my ass off.
