I was there. The rally took place in the middle of the city at 6:30am on a Monday, the first day of school. Nevertheless, people showed up for Kilmar and his family. I was overcome with sadness knowing that the full force of the federal government is being used to terrorize them. I was also struck by the energy from the community that was there to bear witness and fight for justice. There are more of us than there are of them. We need to understand the power we have and use it as a force for good. We cannot sit back and expect others to save us. We must save ourselves.
Stephanie, the gerrymander fight is on. We have a path to the light! There is a new playbook. The old rules have been struck down by the Supreme Court. We need to change the gears here as fast as possible for deadly preemptive strikes. Newsom has moved out on this already. Who is next? Hochul, where are you? Pritzker, what are you doing? Stephanie, will you promote this new move?

Thank you for standing with Kilmer and this incredible community, Geralyn! Absolutely well said!
What a great piece. Thanks for writing it!
Bravo and amen.
Thank you for reading, Al!
It’s hard to be anything but heartbroken watching him get stripped away like our rights
My heart is in a better place after reading this, that’s for sure!
