For that, I'm grateful for activists who have changed America for the better. It's going to be fun in that regard.

Then of course, I'll be facing post election and decision time comes. It comes down to the fact I can't actively support a system that doesn't recognize the protections provided to protect the people from tyranny. Therefore, I won't be able to vote for anyone that perpetuates untouchable power unaccessable for correction. So I have to proceed only as a activist that promotes restitution of the grand experiment of Jefferson and Madison with it's radical premise of a government by the people, for the people.

So everyone MAKE SURE the democrats win this election and don't go third party because republicans have shown they will take that unchecked power to a level that endangers you. Make my last voting election a fruitful one.

2. As someone who grew up in the era of water cannons,
political assassinations, separate bathrooms, water coolers, and schools, I thought it appropriate to pay homage to those activists that brought about change.
