Starting November 4, we’ll need to be ready to defend the count, certification and the seating of the new House. Here’s how.
Protests can impact U.S. election outcomes, and data shows a massive number of pro-immigrant protests in Trump’s second term.
As the cost of living rises and wages stagnate, a growing movement for people over profits is rallying against a set of exploitative ballot amendments.
Rosa did not sit so “our children could fly to Afghanistan to kill somebody else’s kids”.
Martin did not sit so “our children could fly to Afghanistan to kill somebody else’s kids”.
How can Jason make such a connection and blame Obama’s crimes on them.
Sound like the work of another racist pseudo artist.
I think you actually just made Jason’s point in a round about way. The phrase “to afghanistan to kill somebody else’s kids” only works after the final sentence about Obama running for office so our kids could fly. He wasn’t referring to Rosa or Martin, and it is insulting to their legacy to so nonchalantly say that Obama’s election is somehow fulfilling their dreams. Rosa and Martin were firm advocates of nonviolence, while Obama ran on the platform that he would escalate the war in Afghanistan and increase the size of the military (and military’s budget), which unfortunately turned out to be promises that he’s kept.
I honestly believe that if King were alive today he would be in the streets opposing the never-ending wars that Obama is continuing. I think he would not have simply supported Obama because he’s black, regardless of his policies, which are pushing this world ever closer to the brink.
