Who I am does not change according to whatever way the political winds blow. I've spent a lifetime getting around the man, helping others do the same, working within and without the system for change, always speaking up when it mattered. I live my morality. It may not be what much of the country would like to shove down my neck, but I am consistent. One election will not change in me what several others have not. One election will not cut off the hand I extend to my brothers and sisters. One election will not defeat my sense of hope, even as it renews my sense of shame. But no matter, I will go on being who I am, fighting for the causes I believe in, and never compromising myself. I will not abandon who I am and what I can do. One hundred times one hundred motherfucking elections will not change that.

Keep the faith, sister. We'll see good things come to pass in our lifetime. And you and I, we've got the tools to really get under the skin of these pricks. : )
