Thank you for another great letter!The Republican party’s mad scramble to redraw maps to stay in power is about as craven as it gets, and a distinct and obvious threat to democracy. Even more concerning is the Supreme Court’s role in enabling this erosion of our country’s foundation. FWIW, one experiences “death throes,” not “death throws.”
Dear Cameron, once again you have gotten to the heart of the matter. This situation distresses me greatly and yet I feel there’s nothing I can do. Any ideas?
Abide in Possibility: this is what we are given. The "showing of the world" does not lie.
I love this: "Still, I feel that more and more of us are starting to wake up. More people see that these aren’t just isolated policies or normal political arguments. We’re witnessing a bigger fight over who truly belongs in American democracy and who is left out. I’d like to think we are witnessing the death throws of our worst racist instincts." That is how I am holding it.
The Sufis have a saying: Trust in God, but tie your camel first." The trusting in God has to do with faith, has to do with abiding in possibility.
And then, we each need to look to our camels, and tie them up, one by one by one.
We will not give up. We are in this together. Standing in humble unity to keep our Democracy. Thank you for this inspiring message this morning. Prayers 🙏🏻🌸
Maps for the most part give accurate direction. The evolving RED map underscores an unjust sense of direction to be moving towards. This saddens me for my American sisters ad brothers. Please keep telling the truth with your reflections...the Truth will set America free if enough truth-teller keep SPEAKING THE TRUTH WITH THEIR VOICES AND THEIR VOTES.
If Americans are waiting for November for to take back America, it’ll be too late. Trump and his Reich are creating the perfect storm to stop the elections. Nobody will save America but the American People. Stop the talk and stand up for your country and freedoms…
