It is incredibly hard to pretend we are living in normal times . . . we aren’t and that’s our reality. That said, there are things we can focus on that will enhance our future. One issue is redistricting. Our Martha Hennessey has worked hard to pass the HB 1665. We can distract her from our present dilemma by thanking her with a card or by email.
Zoom gatherings are another way to focus on the future instead of the present . . . The Daily Kos with others are holding what should be an exciting digital rally featuring Stacey Abrams and Dr. William Barber at 3:30pm TODAY. They will be discussing and mobilizing people to push our elected officials to put people before corporations in response to the pandemic (see below for more details).
Also, both Andru Volinsky and Annie Kuster have upcoming Zoom events. You can sign up below.
It goes without saying that we are living in dangerous, sad, brutal times (so why are we saying that?) but maybe, after we take care of ourselves and our loved ones, we can take this time to work toward making our world safer, more humane, more accessible, and more reasonable for one and all.
Please, let’s keep some kind of joy in our lives.
