Randomly, "International" by Jim's Big Ego just came up on my playlist. Probably gave me the only ray of optimism I could get on this day.
I don't know how to get us out of this but I'm going to do my best... the best thing I know how to do is work on digital platforms that preserve peoples' civil liberties and rights to organize.
Instead of celebrating this 4th of July (we don't feel like celebrating), @mlemweb and I are going to be donating to orgs which can possibly push back.
