despite the depravity of what I’ve seen at the hands of masked, armed agents indiscriminately targeting people from L.A. to Chicago to Charlotte to Minneapolis, watching everyday people taking peacefully to the streets is giving me extraordinary hope.

Got a nice note from a reader last night on this, they reread it and it made them cry, in a good way. Update: the girl got 100 of kids from her high school out yesterday, and got them all hats, jackets, and hand warmers before they went to march.
