Equality is on the ballot.
Equality means my stepmother doesn’t get harassed in my
neighborhood because she’s Latina.
Equality means my sister-in-law and my niece don’t have to
put up with ignorant comments because they’re Asian.
Equality means Black moms don’t have to have different,
scarier conversations with their kids about the police than I do with mine.
Equality means Black moms/moms-to-be don’t have to worry
that their health care will be compromised during pregnancy/delivery because of
implicit medical bias.
Equality means my LGBTQ friends and family don’t have to
worry about their families being rendered invalid or their health care
threatened.
Equality means Indigenous people don’t have to see an acting
President write an executive order against learning about their actual history.
Equality means I and other women don’t have to worry that
the government has a bigger voice in the decisions about our bodies than we do.
Equality means having equal access to health care, clean
water, clean air.
Everything I just listed can be directly correlated to
something this President either has done or has tried to do.
Equality means living up to the ideals Americans talk about
when we are at our very best
