“We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people.” ~ Martin Luther King Jr.
There isn’t much more to say about the past week in this country – a country I no longer recognize, as much as I am unsurprised by where we are. Most of these silly posts were programmed in advance of recent days, but there are a few that address it because our silence is our complicity. People may not like political posts, but when politics become a question of morality, it is our obligation to speak up. Now, a look back at the previous week, when just a few days ago things felt only slightly less awful…
Backlit and blurred – a time before an image… I do not remember it.
Pre-populating these winter thrills.
Longing for these underwear-clad days.
Locating the sliver of extra light.
A post of pause upon the murder of yet another American citizen by ICE.
Hey MAGA, didn’t many of you vote for Trump to protect your 2nd Amendment rights? Well, the government just shot and killed a man for legally carrying. They took his gun, THEN they shot him, point blank, multiple times. It’s on video and we can clearly see what happened. They are treading on YOU.
Two days before that murder, these seven House Democrats voted to continue funding ICE. I fear many more FAFO moments are in store for our struggling country.
