"Freedom is not a state; it is an act. It is not some enchanted garden perched high on a distant plateau where we can finally sit down and rest. Freedom is the continuous action we all must take, and each generation must do its part to create an even more fair, more just society." #JohnLewis

Lets remember that Trump is a symptom of something larger: the systemic failures that have left people feeling ignored and powerless. His rise reflects real grievances about inequality, cultural change, and institutional failure that remain unaddressed. Time to get to work. #earthrise
