Thanks so much for the great Vaclav Havel piece - it’s GREAT!! And let’s not forget Bryan Stevenson : “Hope is our superpower. Where hopelessness prevails injustice wins”. And thanks for all that you do!!!
This is a great message to share, because you've distilled the information for the specific states that need to be flipped or held (AZ is practically a "flip" tho) and I'm also thrilled that you listed Postcards to Voters because I already use them as well as Resistbot.
Yes, that's my Activism 101 master doc. I give that link to everyone who takes my workshop so they have a place to find stuff to do. Share widely if you like--it's for everyone to use!
Havel's take is a good one. But, one of my favorites when needing a reminder about hard work and how to treat the failures in life comes from right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxBQLFLei70 One of the greatest motivational speeches of all time.

That's a great one, too. Thank you!
I misquoted Bryan - the correct quote: "injustice prevails where hopelessness persists"--- and thank you again, always, Jess!
Great email today thanks. I was proud to contact my members with your excellent script.
Thank you, Kerry! I appreciate your taking action!

If you want other good postcarding opportunities check this document, which I will be updating all year as new opportunities arise. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IfRz8KzfeFtliu3gYO9biasdKciTkr3qSj6_g2W6nN8/edit#
Wow, that document is so much more than just postcards! Thanks for sharing, and I'll keep checking it periodically.

I'll check it out!
during all this I am mindful of the resilience
of African Americans who keep coming back, believing change is possible. I have no right to get discouraged.
Exactly. Discouragement and "giving up" are a privilege most people of color don't have.
Thank you, Cathy.
