Myrlie Evers-Williams: "Stand your ground"

[Skidmore]

What a wonderful way to turn the ignominious jargon of the NRA and its legislative cronies into a positive call. If you can find her speech at the march, watch it. We need to stand our ground and not go back. The greater coalition must hold or we will go back.

1. This whole event is very inspiring to me.

I'm loving it!

2. Rep. Lewis just made me cry.

I hope other people are energized and inspired by this to get out and advocate, agitate and educate.

[Skidmore]

3. What strikes me is that there are so many leaders

and yet we need a leader among them who can galvanize the whole.

[JackBeck]

4. Social media has fractured that galvanization.

Everyone has a voice now, unlike 50 years ago.

Whether or not that is a good thing is left up for debate.

5. Me too. His speech was POWERFUL.
