A few years ago during the Arab Spring, citizens tried to throw off the yoke of authoritarian regimes, and move towards true democracy. Ironically, in this American Spring we seem to be moving swiftly in the opposite direction.
We have as our leader someone who has empowered extremist oligarchs to eliminate many of our hard-won protections, seeking to impose a free-for-all atmosphere, where corporations are free to pollute the environment and exploit their customers.
This in conjunction with appointing a group of racist anti-government extremists to positions of great authority, the other half of the White House “wrecking crew” currently taking devastating aim at what remains of our democratic institutions; the courts, universities, a free press and respect for the truth in general.
In the face of this attack on our freedoms we must register and vote, resist and organize to save what’s left of our great national heritage.
