(18,672 posts)Women of color. This is powerful, beautifully written, resonating truth and deeply heartfelt. I needed to read this, and I think so many of us do right now because we are angry, heartbroken, dismayed and disgusted at what we have been seeing unfold, unencumbered. I love this woman!

I know you have stated you have no interest in serving in an elected or appointed political office. I appreciate that.
But now is the time for all good people to put aside their personal wishes and come to the aid of Democracy.
Your voice and leadership are desperately needed. People on all sides hold you in deep respect.
Over the coarse of our History, many have been called to serve and have put aside their personal goals. Minutemen. Immigrants who were called to service in many many wars. Leaders who dearly wished to retire but did not because they could not leave their country in it's time of need.
It's time Michele. Your Country NEEDS YOU.
