My heart aches this afternoon in anticipation of how Trump’s cruel bill will affect the children and families of our country. I taught 50 years in the underserved communities of Cleveland and East Cleveland. When I retired in 2018 , many children’s best meals were those eaten at school. Poverty isn’t an accident, it’s man made. God help us all if this bill passes!
Usually, I have so much to say. But not today. I am shook by all of it. It's too much. What is wrong with the Republican party? Why are they so obsessed with kissing Trumps butt? Why are they so afraid of him? I honestly can't grasp the lure. Wow. I don't know what happens next, but sure we'll mobilize, we'll boycott, we'll protest... but... will it change anything without some good powerful people to also chime in? Why are Senate Republicans okay with any of this? Why is the Supreme court? This is ridiculous. It's daunting. It's depressing and I hate my country more and more every day. 😔
Yes, we must shut down commerce and government offices and not just for a day. Prepare now by strengthening or creating mutual aid— we have to care of those with no savings
I can't sleep. We need a mass mutual aid fund to help the workers if we mobilize to shut down this country for a day or two. I'm afraid there's nothing other than an act of God to save us now.
The fact that they refer to themselves as Christian, means they've at least had a passing glance at the Bible, so they know what they're doing, and they know who's teachings they're repudiating. I don't think any phony, bologny Catholic confession is ever going to cleanse their souls (if they have souls) I think at their core there's just one big, black, rotten pit. I kind of think the new Pope is not too keen on them either. Maybe there needs to be a mass excommunication (or perhaps an exorcism).
I was struck by his speech, too, and as a former resident of Savannah, impressed by his moral clarity and fervor. I'm retired and was self-employed as a therapist 'serving the underserved' before that, so I can't strike. But I can boycott, make some noise, and put my body in harm's way if necessary, as good people have long done in the face of immoral oppression. I can, and I will. Amen.
Dr. Eddie,

I applaud Senator Warnock on This moral moment but he has been silent on the Gaza genocide.

The General Strike should be now!!!! Not after this evil legislation is passed!!!
#wehavebeenherebefore...it is our faith which sustains us re: the black radical tradition...the struggle is long/though never over.
