Today would’ve been Fannie Lou Hamer’s birthday. In 1964, she asked a question that still echoes:
“Is this America… where our lives be threatened daily, because we want to live as decent human beings?”

Pritzker out here giving a master class in countering the right wing propaganda machine’s efforts to justify further federal invasions and occupations of American cities: he’s effectively reframing the discussion (beyond debates re: crime rates) to one of rising authoritarianism & federal overreach.
Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."

In song, he brilliantly skewered clichés about romance, patriotism and small-town life.
