Voter suppression and racism and Republicans: the conservative trinity.

Donate to Stacey Abrams if you can.

Remember this guy? This Trump-backed dude who is Georgia’s Secretary of State? 

This is the guy who stalled 53,000 voter registration applications in Georgia. 80% of these applications were sent in by Americans of color.

Kemp knows what happens if these folks vote. 

And people are out there saying voting makes no difference.

“The flag I was carrying is the same one I always hold in all the other protests I’ve attended. My friends make fun of me, saying it is easier to throw rocks without holding a flag in the other hand, but I got used to it.

If I get killed, I want to be wrapped in the same flag. We are demanding our right of return, and protesting for our dignity and the dignity of our future generation.”

— A'ed Abu Amro (x)

actually what makes this even more powerful is that his name is A’ed / عائد which means returnee :’)

"Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within."

— Sigmund Freud (via fyp-psychology)

"If a boy hits my daughter, I will not tell her it is because he likes her, I will instead teach her how to fight back and defend her feelings as much as her body. And if a teacher tries to excuse his behaviour, I will remind them how inflicting pain on someone is a terrible way to show them you like them and a worse way to get attention. Little girls who know how to roar are not sheep to little boys who think they are wolves."
