The result of the Civil War, subsequent decisions aiming to thwart racism.....none of it stopped the undercurrent of blatant racism in large chunks of the USA. Ditto for Roe vs Wade.

The fight for the Soul of this country is on again, and in a far more dangerous era.

God knows what might go down in the next 2-3 years.

Those of us for truth, justice, Fairness, compassion etc need to show up and vote all the way down to school boards....and get as active as possible to thwart this push by the far right.
