One of my almost daily practices lately has been making calls to local, state and federal government officials, law enforcement, and companies. I’m asking those that I’ve elected to have power in this country and others that just have power, to use their power for good. I’ve been calling to voice my opinions regarding Standing Rock, police brutality, the release of the SBI report in the murder of Jerry Williams, to try and stop the appointment of Steve Bannon. I have politically been asleep for much of my adult life. I’ve lost hope in our government and thus did not engage in aspects of being a democracy. I feel like right now, one small thing I can do regularly is make calls to let these people with power know that we are here, we are paying attention, we are calling for just action.
