A lot is happening right now, so let's just take a break to celebrate a small victory.
On Wednesday, February 5th American citizens around the country gathered to protest the actions of Donald Trump, his administration, and Elon Musk. The grassroots group is called 50501 and their goal was simple - 50 protests at 50 capitals, on one day.
It was a beautiful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit. Unfortunately, the past few weeks have been filled with hatred and darkness that feels close to becoming the new normal - concerned Americans took to the streets to let their voices be heard.
And those voices said this country cannot be taken from its people in silence or witthout a fight. #50501Protest
As the events of the last few weeks left me feeling despondent, I was taking a break from all political content. As a result, though, I missed the opportunity to join the 50501 protests. But, I would like to tell anyone who participated on Wednesday how much it has lifted my spirits and revived my hopes. Any additional upcoming public demonstrations against this administration will be at least one person stronger, because this girl will be there with bells on.
