#call ur representatives

[incorrect-nielwoon]

Daniel: what do you all do to relax after a tough day?

Jaehwan: dramatically serenade myself in the mirror.

Jisung: puzzles.

Jihoon: eat a cookie! and when I'm feeling dangerous... I eat a second cookie.

Sungwoon: I usually go and sit on a surface that isn't meant to be sat on, because when tomorrow comes I will be faced with even more challenges... and I am too overwhelmed to be worrying about what is and is not a chair.

Daniel: Sungwoon, I was feeling good today.

A message to the “wait and see” people:

I understand. You don’t want to overreact, or even believe that things will get as bad as they seem like they may. 

But if you wait it will be too late. 

Once we start to actually see the results of the Trump presidency, the power structures of violence and oppression will be in place and it will be a thousand times harder to create change.

Please, please act now. Call your representatives, volunteer, reach out to the people in danger, engage other people in the privileged position to “wait and see”. 

This is not a lecture, it is a request from a young, queer, jewish, chronically ill woman. It is a request because I don’t want you to change, but I want you to help me stay safe, because I and many other people are in more and more danger the longer you wait. 

Please.

I will cry but I will not be complacent.
