'Return to Normalcy' Not Going to Be Enough to Win Our Support, Young Progressives Tell Joe Biden
Quote
"[W]e grew up with endless war, skyrocketing inequality, crushing student loan debt, mass deportations, police murders of black Americans and mass incarceration, schools which have become killing fields, and knowing that the political leaders of today are choking the planet we will live on long after they are gone. We've spent our whole lives witnessing our political leaders prioritize the voices of wealthy lobbyists and big corporations over our needs. From this hardship, we've powered a resurgence of social movements demanding fundamental change. Why would we want a return to normalcy? We need a vision for the future, not a return to the past." —Coalition of youth-led progressive organizations

Common Dreams

I just visited with a Millenial friend down in Tampa, she was torn because voting for Biden seems like going against everything she believes. I assured her that it was okay not to vote for Biden but that she should still get out and support the downballot candidates. She just graduated with a poli-sci degree and plans a career in government. She takes her vote very seriously. Like me, she thinks Biden unworthy of it.

Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...
