I live in the foothills of North Carolina. I have been to Cherokee and watched with joy the beautiful people of this proud tribe. They climbed up ropes and and did all kinds of acrobats that looked so scary, but all ended well. But like you, Maria Tallchief, I watched and listened to a college professor talk with passion about the cruelty towards the proud Native Americans. The infamous Trail of Tears. I couldn’t get this off of my mind, so I read what little I could find about these proud beautiful people. So I wrote a story about them. A children’s story with a happy ending. If you go onto my email page, my son, a computer engineer saved the story for me. If you can’t download it, my email is catbirdsview@gmail.com. I think I have a copy of it. Hopefully you will like it.

This coming week in memory of RBG dedicating all my signed book profits from orders of Your Voice, Your Vote: The Savvy Woman’s Guide to Politics, Power, and the Change we Need to the ACLU Women’s Rights Project, which she founded in 1972.  Help me honor her at marthaburk.org

As long as most politicians think women don’t count, and many women believe them, they won’t vote. The premise is forgone; “I don’t count ergo my vote doesn’t count.” This is the curse of a patriarchal society. The best way to turn that upside down is to VOTE. “I vote, therefore I count.” Then use your new status as a voter and make a difference.

I am a retired social worker who believes the ERA is a necessity to freedom. 

Her speech on the House floor was the takedown of the century. Every woman should watch it whether you completely agree with her politics or not.  It transcends party.

These are not just insults. These a tests to see how far the right can go unpunished before the make a power play for total control of the government. They are testing the waters before they create their fascist state.

His words ring through the centuries.

We hide the truth in many subtle ways.

These are the types of voices that need to be heard more often.

She proves that determination is vital.

Loved reading about Sonia. So glad to call her a friend.

What to do first is elect Biden who we hope will be a Demand-sider who will tax the wealthy and corporations enough to fund small business restoration, free college for Blacks, infrastructure upgrade, national healthcare, and reimagining law enforcement.

The video is very well done and informative . I live in Ga. and voted.

Hope he makes a film about this poor depiction of a President

YES!!!  We must ALL join together to get Trump out of office.  If we don’t the loss may well be our fault.   This includes ALL the parties coming together!!!

Well said!

Don’t forget that these corporations get low wage employees who also receive public assistance, such as food stamps (snap) and aid for dependent children (adc).
