Yesterday was the third annual Women's March, the cornerstone of what has come to be called the "me too" movement. Marches were held across the country as women in pink hats flocked in the thousands to lend their support to this progressive movement. Unfortunately, national turnout was low as the march remained shrouded in questionable financial transactions, disputes over the soul the movement, and accusations of anti-Semitism. Such conflicts perpetuate oppression and malignant patriarchy. Getting members of diverse groups to distrust one another, and see each other as the enemy, allows those with power to divert attention from their unethical and illegal actions. Isolated and alone, we lose our strength and render We The People unable to effect real change.
Let's remember that the people united can never be divided! Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Day, so lets turn our eyes to the true prize, and stay focused on our core values. We must unite to achieve common sense goals and defeat those who wield power in the their own self interest. Let's come together as diverse peoples of many creeds, genders, opinions, and ethnicities to build a new world order that truly cares for ALL members of the human family. We shall be heard on fair wages, creating health care for all, affordable education, ending nuclear proliferation and murderous imperialism, and demanding a clean planet. Take a moment to find that place within you where we are all one. Then send a gentle embrace of love and forgiveness to your brothers and sisters, and lets get back to work! United we will not be defeated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsKTzFwv16w
