Norman Lear Instagram – Dear Friends,
For the sake of urgency, I am compelled to share with all. . .
I have known spoken word artist Steve Connell for over twenty years; his words are fierce, and he moves me to do all we can do in this election. If this moves you as well, please kindly share.
Love,
Norman

NOTPRESIDENT
Chapter 1 Moon Shot
“If justice holds the line between wrong and right / And we are just the fight that leans the hardest / Then what I am asking you sir-/ which way would you have us lean?”
In this moment,
in our streets, our towns, our homes and in the hallowed halls of our government, we gather to demand more of the people failing the founding poetry of America.
Truth is non-partisan. Facts have no alternative. Justice knows no bias, because America isn’t America for any, until it is America for all.
Trump has spent 4 years acting like he is “NOTPRESIDENT”, and this piece is designed to make sure that come November 3rd, that’s exactly what he is.
A provocative artistic condemnation of Trump, and a searing and powerful indictment of his refusal to lead in any meaningful way, “NOTPRESIDENT” pulls no punches in its efforts to expose his incredible incompetency and reveal him as an existential threat to us all. | Posted on 24/Oct/2020 04:20:00
