Still hoping for a better world. I believe in making the world a better place, one small action at a time, and I love connecting with people who share that outlook.

“The billionaire class has sought to convince those making $30-an-hour that their enemies are those earning $20-an-hour. They want the people to fight amongst ourselves so that we remain distracted from the work of remaking a long, broken system.”

My Mom. A coal (and gold) miners daughter. Founder of Grandmothers Against Genocide.
On New Years she would let 70 punk kids in the tiny basement of her townhouse and we could dance all night long.
Those still sitting around the kitchen table at 8 in the morning had to go to Mass.
That's my Mom.

Friedrich Nietzsche, that jovial Saxon, wrote in 1886: "Madness is rare in individuals, but the rule in groups, parties, nations, and epochs." We must give Nietzsche credit for the fact that Donald Trump wasn't born until 60 years later; the philosopher and the current US president never met.

Lose that, and everything else collapses into bargaining with power

🚨BREAKING: Hours after Texas passed its new map, my law firm has challenged it in federal court. In addition to violating the VRA, HB 4 violates the 14th Amendment because it unjustifiably considers race and partisanship as part of a voluntary, mid-cycle redistricting. @redistrictfdn.bsky.social

“I believe in the people in this country - if we open our eyes up as a society.”

In Oro Valley, AZ, Lisa Levine, a retired Army captain and educator, says that America can overcome if we open our eyes to how the rich and corporations have captured our politics and made us so unequal and divided.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
