I am a proud second wave feminist who’s engaged the struggle for intersectional women’s liberation for a lifetime. I am the mother and grandmother of many beloveds who, along with everyone else, deserve to live in a world of clean air and water, clean real food, free from violence and oppression, able to create a life of authenticity and love,

I am also a survivor of sexual, physical and emotional abuse – I know what a predator looks and acts like. The PEOTUS is a mentally ill predator and he will loot and pillage our rights and our liberty if we do not resist. This is not a new condition in our country – it’s just that the veil has been lifted from the underbelly of capitalist empire. We need not hate the PEOTUS and his courtiers, but we must vigorously resist before it’s too late. As the wonderful Alice Walker has said, “Resistance is the secret of joy.”
