Robin. Hear me when I say regarding my past comment on March 5th. It by far did not make me a saint nor my needing a pat on the back for writing it. It’s not about me. It’s more about a real belief in you and a long overdue necessity. Stick together, support each other, and lift each other up. We as white people haven’t faired well in that department for so many. You got this!!!! Onwards and upwards for you.

Thanks for all that you do Robin! Please join the GENERAL CONSUMER STRIKE. We need to hold the American economy hostage until basic demands are met.

1) The president must respect the rule of law

2) The president must acknowledge free speech and the power of the Judiciary

If we don't spend, the economy slows...and more people don't spend.

Voters care about $$$s.

Tech Bro’s understand only the language of $$$

I

--Please buy only necessities. Food, utilities, medicine.

--Sell American stocks if you can.

--Postpone travel and renovations if you can (or drive and spend $$s in Canada!)

Right now, Trump is defying the Judiciary and flirting with a constitutional crisis. But, we are not powerless....we have the power of the purse.

We regularly boycott countries that will not respect our values. America has become one of those countries...threatening our neighbor's sovereignty, extorting from those under attack, showing no respect for the rule of law or basic civil rights. Engage in this potent legal form of protest.

Will this hurt everyone? Yes. Trump has declared war on our legal system and constitution. War hurts.

HOW WILL WE SURVIVE AN ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN?

--Give what you can to neighbors and food banks

--Join the gift economy through local sites like Buy Nothing and Nextdoor.

--Ask neighbors and friends for what you need.

Please post, share, spread the word any way you can and stop the shredding of our Democracy.

Thanks, stay strong and keep fighting. We are in this together.
