I’m so sorry if this is the 1st election for you. hope it turns u into an activist

i feel so sick about those we let down the most, those who needed it the most. the ones who will be most affected and were least heard.

93% of black women. love

i feel so inspired by the people who spoke out.

i want to talk about being at the javits center last night. the scene and feeling when things weren’t looking good is something i will carry with me always. the lighting, the mass amounts of people, hope — i was so proud to be there with thousands of hillary supporters who wanted to live in a better and less racist angry country.

note on javits center. typically i hate being in a room with many famous people but it was beautiful to be there with the people who have put their money, popularity and safety second to standing up and doing their part. I’m talking about amy schumer, america ferrera, gaga, LD etc etc. all of us have to remember what speaking out means. if its hard and has consequences then it must be pretty fucking important. dinner table with friends and family or an arena full of people, do your part to avoid days like today in the future. theres inevitably going to be a lot of this type coming up now ——

the failure of the press. have an opinion. take a stand and say something to the people that has weight and matters. don’t get played by trump over the next four years. stop being an aggregate of what famous people tweet and post. that culture is directly linked to trump being able to make this work. the most clicked item is sometimes the most disgusting. don’t legitimize it. please contribute to the notion that people are smart and interested, stop keeping us obsessed with what is so shockingly graceless. after all that is how we helped create trump.

today I’m no good, tomorrow ill be better

don’t accept things just because they happen slowly.

all trauma that I’ve i had in my life feels connected to what i felt at 10pm last night when there was a panic in me that i haven’t felt since 9/11 and losses in my family. i believe many of us are connecting this massive loss to personal losses as well. awful

grief and loss

i love this country

time and money. we must continue the conversation on how voting discriminates. voting takes time. signing up, printing, mailing, planning, going to polls, waiting on line for an hour or more… etc ect. people who’s votes matter most DONT HAVE TIME. time is money for people as well. yes its a law in many places to get 2 hours off of work to go vote….. but I’m sure thats not so smooth for minimum wage workers to announce to their boss. people who have time and money are heard and those people are voting with the interests of people with TIME AND MONEY and those are the very people in the least danger of government. why is so hard for those who need to heard and counted to make it happen in this day and age?

she won the popular vote.

look at who voted which way. 18 - 24 wanted hilllary. black women did. black men. latinos. jews. immigrants of all places etc etc. this says that this election is the last stand of old white men trying to keep this country from moving forward. we see it in the UK and all over the world — this last ditch effort to pull things back. I’m sorry we fell into it but never again.

sorry obama. love you

love you too hillay. thank you for making a path. can’t wait for the first female president. maybe she’ll be latino as well?
