(30,481 posts)I have often called it one of the greatest grassroots movements in history. This movement toward a more just society has more often than not forged the way on their own. Relentlessly while keeping sight of the goal.
Along the way they don't forget others who are oppressed as well.
Because of this prolonged tenacity and pretty unified goals, the people's minds have dramatically changed. The rest of society took a while and are late to the game, but they have arrived. I expect the actions of the more aggressive bigots to escalate as their numbers dwindle even further. As usual, congress lags behind the will of the people.
One party currently seems to have its ass in gear. Not to say there isn't room for improvement.
Amazing grassroots effort.
