I have been protesting and posting on socials and would like to do more, but I didn’t feel safe enough in this community (SC) to even put up a political sign for fear the crazy magas would harm our vehicles, home, etc.
Thanks for your work. After 36 years of my adult life behind the Orange Curtain, I moved to LA. We need more of you and the Shirley Grindles to hold the electeds' feet to the fire.
Love this call to action. We get so triggered and focused on national issues and voice our displeasure, but the true action is in our own backyard. I bet most of us can't name our state or local reps that make a bigger difference in our own community. Fantastic advice, step 1. Learn who represents you, and what they are doing or not doing in our communities (I am writing to myself, because I also do not know everyone who represents me)
Kanew is a hypocrite though. For example, he rightly calls out Republican legislators for disgusting votes but doesn't consistently when Dems take the same votes. Worse, he calls out some Dems and fails to mention his favorites. I am blocked to this day on his Facebook site for pointing out much worse by one of his (formerly, I believe) favorite Dems. I am 100% Dem but this exact nonsense helped get Tennessee to its current sad state of even worse Republican nonsense than the surrounding states.
