Reply #6: Theft of votes in Florida [View All]

[Danmel]

My daughter is 13 and is learning about Reconstruction and the Civil Rights movement in her honors Social Studies class. She had to read "Plessy v. Ferguson" and "Brown vs. Board". So we were watching the news and reading the paper and talking about all the attempts to suppress minority voting and she said "Boy, I thought we had gotten past all this already, what is going on?"

It makes me so sad and so angry to have to tell her that we really haven't gotten past it and this regime wnats to take us back to 1963, before the Voting Rights Act, before the Civil Rights act, when women and gays and blacks and Jews knew their places and kept their mouths shut.

We MUST take our country back. This is just not acceptable.
