Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region Forumsthe juxtaposition. this just struck me after hearing Lady Ruby:
Lady Ruby won't wear her tee shirt with her name on it any more versus donald trump who proudly wears a tee shirt with President Donald Trump on it. This is so backwards. She is the one who should be proud to wear her tee shirt. He is the one who should be afraid and ashamed and living in fear.
Ruby Freeman's testimony. She was known as "Lady Ruby," owned a clothing shop. Was wearing a Lady Ruby shirt on Election Day 2020. Will never wear it again. Won't even use her name any more

I would be proud to.

(58,785 posts)2. Well, Lady Ruby doesn't come across as a helpless or silent victim,
and traumatized as they are the wheel has been turning for them. It'll take some while for their lawsuits to settle, but someday. Hopefully in that someday they'll once again use their names in public, but democracy means something to them and they'll always have played a significant role in serving it.

Calling him a "singer" seems kind of generous...
