Good morning

Yesterday’s rally/protest at Mast’s office (our 48th consecutive Wednesday!) had lots of new people. Here is a picture.

This proves this paragraph from a longer post by Rebecca Solnit, a wonderful writer that I follow, on why she is optimistic that we will win

“I see an intransigent, never-surrender spirit across the land. I see bold solidarity. I see an insurgent ethic of solidarity and a magnificent boldness in its realization as practical action. I see another USA swimming into focus, from Bad Bunny in California to the Buddhist monks arriving today in the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., from the solidarity networks of Minneapolis to those of New Orleans. It gives me hope. I believe in the American people, insofar as I see that we are diverse, scattered across vast amounts of space, from inner city to wilderness, with centuries behind us of believing in and fighting for and expanding our rights and demanding a limit on authorities' ability to tell us what to do, backed by a surly insubordination that is a beautiful thing in this moment.”

As one of the protestors said to me yesterday “I am trying to convert my friends, one at a time. It’s working on some of them.”

On another note, we now have a Facebook page thanks to Denise Bellingham. Check it out. Join. Post.

Thanks to Cory Rupar we will soon have a TCI banner to tell everyone who we are.

On April 9 we will have a forum for candidates running for FL21 (Mast’s office).

Thank you for all you are ALL doing. We need to continue.
