“Cowardice asks, is it safe? Expediency asks, is it politic? Vanity asks, is it popular? Conscience asks, is it right? There comes a time when we must take a position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular, but one must take it because it is right.”

A critical conversation - voting. Our voice. Our power.
And no matter how strongly your opinion may differ from mine, it’s always ok.
You can yell all you want. I won’t block ya and I won't even yell back.😉
We all still have work to do 👊🏾

“Patriotism, while deeply personal, is a dialogue with your fellow citizens, and a larger world, about not only what you love about your country but also how it can be improved... Patriotism is rooted in humility. Nationalism is rooted in arrogance.” #WhatUnitesUs @DanRather ❤️

Today the internet is 50 years old.
The internet & the web it enabled have changed billions of lives for the better. But their power for good is under threat.
This birthday must mark the moment we take on the fight for the web we want.

Ultimately, the choice is up to us. I choose vigilance over acceptance. Unity over division. Diligence over apathy. Empathy over intolerance. Truth over lies. Hope over helplessness. And love over hate.
