I recognize Stacy Abrams who had the strength to run for office in her state of Georgia. And she came close to winning. Now she fights to eliminate voters suppression. It’s takes me back to when people of color were not allowed to vote, or once they could, made so difficult, the vote couldn’t be counted. Rights seem to come and go for the poor and people of color.
I heard recently if you were incarcerated, your right to vote exist. But for years I had heard that right was lost once you went to prison it was “a wrap”.
Stacy Abrams is a brilliant example of the Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth of today.
As she honors the rights of all to vote, I honor her commitment to fight to correct systemic desire to cheat.
Her desire to be the President of this country as a woman of color says everything about her strength and conviction. No matter what she achieves I am just happy she exists. Reminding others of what’s possible and their personal responsibility.
