...but if we don't all keep fighting for what's right, they win. I was very depressed about our country for almost a year after the election, then by reading and hearing encouraging words by progressives fighting for our democracy, environmental activists, savvy lawyers like from Southern Poverty, Law Center, etc., I began to feel the energy in myself again and am back in fighting mode. I hope you can find something to feel a bit more positive about, 'cause there are so many people out there pushing against the truly evil right wingers to save what is left of our democracy.
We can't give up!
