We were sitting on our favorite bench yesterday. Mid-afternoon. Watching the clouds drift across the sky, watching the waves crashing into the sandy shore. The beach was deserted, except for a few seagulls, flying low, and a few prancing across the sand.
Two fellows came trekking down the path. They stopped at our bench and handed us the No Kings handbill. We all talked about the big event coming this Saturday. Supposedly there will be around 2500 gatherings throughout the USA.
Think of it as the sprawling "Beloved Community," coming out to stand against tyranny. Are we a bunch of paid radicals? Nope. Just concerned citizens. The common folk. It seems the Trumpers are a bit worried about this event. They should be. I do think we will show the world, and America, that there are more of us than them.
We will celebrate the Constitution, Freedom, Democracy, the Rule of Law, Immigrants, Workers, Diversity, Inclusiveness. All walks of Life. Humans of all kinds. This is foundational stuff. Important. Find a local Indivisible gathering and stand up to be counted. This is our America. Let's reclaim the Dream.
