1776 was 244 years ago: White Men who owned property could declare their independence. Those who found themselves in a new and distant land; free from tyranny and a place to begin a new life. A new world founded on Genocide and the brutality of Colonialism was an illusion of freedom for the enslaved Africans brought over in bondage and violent subjection. was 400 years, 's funny how white liberals are now all the sudden concern the, when we've been saying this ship for years........
All the movements are the movement.
I am white. I am a socialist. I am an American. I believe in open borders. I believe part of what Americans owe to the world is to be a place where people can lift themselves out of poverty, escape torture, and live sustainably because we stole this land, we enslaved people to become one of the richest nations in the world, and we have damaged the environment more than any other country. Based on our history we must adhere to higher standards and pay for what we have done to humanity. I believe everyone who lives in the Unites States should have access to free healthcare, to free education, to affordable housing, and to a fair wage. So based on this, people often label me as a leftist, a radical (which I don’t mind - those are lovely words), but truly what I am in an innovator and a humanitarian. I love myself and know I deserve love. I want to use that privilege to ensure that everyone on planet Earth gets to feel that way - even if I disagree with them.
Last Saturday I attended a March and rally organized by black youth in our community and the message that stuck with me was...
All the movements are the movement.
It seems simple but this statement had such a profound effect on me. In a sea full of people walking and yelling for social justice, in the middle of a pandemic that has killed over 100,000 people in our country, emotions were raw and flowing. So many different ideas of HOW to make this deeply necessary change real. So many feelings about the best way to fight for equality and take a stand for freedom. I can already see that those of us who want to see black and brown people elevated, supported, and economically healed so they can live every day with the same rights we do are arguing with each other, losing focus, draining our energy, and taking sides about the WHAT and the HOW. The truth is right now...
All the movements are the movement.
In order to take responsibility for hundreds of years of black and brown oppression, in order to forgive thousands of years of patriarchy, in order to heal the pain of thousands of years of murder, rape, starvation, emotional abuse, and self loathing we must center ourselves on the WHY. Those who want to keep people down, those who want to perpetuate racism, those who want to protect the rich, those who want to preserve a system that is toxic and no longer serves us want us to fight each other. They want us to burn out. The want us to embrace apathy. They want us to be depressed, anxious, worried about money, isolated with our own people so we forget that our power lies in acting as one. They want to us to hate each other so we forget our purpose is to dismantle their empire. Our power comes from knowing it is okay to disagree on the WHAT and the HOW. We need to refine and build systems that allow us to exercise our collective decisions in order to take action, but right now we must center around the WHY. We can not fragment if we truly want to see change. We must accept and understand that...
All the movements are the movement.
Change of this magnitude does not come easily. This moment is our alchemy. We are transforming ourselves and our world. Pressure from all sides is the only path to victory. Everyone has a role to play. We don’t have to agree on every aspect of the system break down, but we have to truly see each other’s motivation. We must be open, listening, self-reflective, flexible, strong, and know what we are here to contribute because...
All the movements are the movement.
We must be relentless my friends. We must endure. I’ll see you on the battlefield.

⚠️VEIN IGNORANCE⚠️
It's really sickening how these people are so blindly loyal to such dangerous demagoguery. He plays right into their fears and hatred of people who don't look like them. These people are proud to be so ignorant and misguided.
No matter how many times he contradicts himself, from one statement to the next, still they cheer....😂🤣😭🤪🤔 It's actually pretty horrifying to watch, yet so hilariously ridiculous; it reminds me of the movie "Idiocracy"
