The results of the 2016 election felt like a punch to the gut. I remember feeling stunned, confused, and unprepared for what lay ahead. I learned in that moment, and in many moments since, that elections have consequences.
We enter the Nov. 6 midterm election ruled by a Republican majority carrying out a concerted voter suppression campaign and with a leader blatantly cultivating an environment of racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia and oppression. This must end.

Since 2013, the #BlackLivesMatter movement and the Black Lives Matter Global Network and our allies have fought against attacks on black bodies and our communities. We have fought against police, vigilante, and state-sanctioned violence. We have brought focus to issues that disproportionately impact black people including the degradation of the environment, mass incarceration, the broken money-bail system, low wages and poverty. We uplift the working class. We celebrate queer, trans, femme and gender binary folks, and fight for immigrant rights. We center black joy.

Didn't she vote for a white woman?
I was not aware that anyone had “Voted-In” White Supremacy.
You should just leave this raysis country, Patty. Try Somalia, they’ll love you there.
Tell it, Sister.
But change “Supremacy” to “interest.”
OOps, I misread the headline. I thought she was being sarcastic, not serious.
“White Supremacy” is the only thing standing between our Republic and a Marxist takeover. Long live White Patriots!
They left out Iron Poor Tired Blood and the Heartbreak of Psoriasis...
There is no such thing as ‘White Supremacy’!
“We celebrate queer, trans, femme and gender binary folks, and fight for immigrant rights”
yeah, i somehow doubt that the regular black working-class fellow “celebrates queer, trans, femme and gender binary folks, and fights for immigrant rights” ...
Ah.
Uhhhh.
What?
PuffHo's not Democrat-leaning any more? Now that's newsworthy!
I doubt that, but you'll certainly hear me.
Yeah!!
Let’s vote dem ‘Mericans outta der own country!!
Viva La Raza!
Power to da Peeples Right Arm!
Keep singin’ it morons, the ordinary people are leavin’ ya in droves
Big Daddy Don gonna blow y’all away
They keep beating that dead horse. Meanwhile, minorities are learning Trump is not the boogie-man they’ve been warned against, and that conservatives welcome them with open arms and major economic opportunities.
This person needs serious mental help.
“There is no such thing as White Supremacy!”
I know that, it’s a metaphor! Just taking note or what group was actually behind the formation of this country.
