“ours is not the struggle of one day, one week, or one year.
ours is not the struggle of one judicial appointment or presidential term.
ours is the struggle of a lifetime,
or maybe even many lifetimes,
and each of us in every generation must do our part.”
-*john lewis
*John Lewis was an American politician, civil rights leader, and Medal of Freedom awardee who served in the House of Representatives from 1987 until his death in 2020.

which I think is as perfect an analogy as we’re likely to get for the futility of racism.”

“art is chaos and harmony infused together.
it is the expression of your emotions.
a form of both activism and rebellion.
it is, as they say, all around us.”

spent tonight at a rally
on the diag at the university of michigan
with mayor chris taylor addressing our city
as we stand in solidarity with charlottesville
and for all those who continue to stand against
racism, hate, violence, and inequality
organized in 10 hours
through grass roots movements
and a lot of heart and passion
a police officer, a mayor, a photographer, a bagpiper, a retiree
and hundreds of others
all different
yet all here for the same reason
kindness.

“it is the kindness …that finally decides our fate.”
