We Made It - Election 2020

Dear Friends,
 
We made it to the election of 2020.  And of course we know the ride isn’t over.  But at least, Nov. 3 is upon us.
 
How are you, my friends?  Hopeful, I’m sure and exhausted and anxious.  
 
 We didn’t deserve this treatment.  There was a great spot on TV after the virus broke out.  It read something like:
 
“Adversity came to town and asked what we were going to do about it.”  We looked it in the eye and said, “watch us.”
 
We’ll make it.  We are in it together.  Our beacon of hope is our vote.
 
I appreciate all of you, my friends. 

I wanted to share two videos with you, this week, the last week before Election Day.  
 
The "1964: The Fight for Right," American Public Broadcasting documentary, reminded me of some things we went through in previous decades. And, we made it.
 
Frontline's "Whose Vote Counts?" I found important because we have a lot of work to when it comes to voter suppression.
 
And, it reminds me of all the brave people who worked, and lived and died in a fight for voting rights.  My respect and admiration for these brave heroes knows no bounds.
 
Love,
Nancy Jean
 
From Kristine: I share Nancy's heartfelt thoughts about what we're all dealing with at this momentous time in history. The only thing I can add at this point is to please make your voice heard and vote. We can change the course of our nation if we all work together. Let's do this.
