General Discussion

I too went through the civil rights movement, the anti warr of the sixties and feel dissappointed. We underestimated the power of the corporate media.
tThe internet made it worse.and much easier to spread misinformation. However, I feel progress can only be held back, not stopped. There is always a backlash to change, but it happens anyway. The biggest problem we have now is too many of us are just fighting for the status quo instead of going on the attack. Now is the time to go for a change. Health care could be a game changer after the R's destroy the medicaid program and many more will suffer. On my last trip to the Mississippi Delta in 2019 it really struck me how much has changed since the sixties. Freedom is a constant struggle and we are up against the big money so to me it's like ice hockey: it's what you do when you don't have the puck that's important. Organize in your neighborhood, be there when you are needed.
