I am very proud of her and her actions.

Not only that, but I am seriously impressed by her climbing ability!

in history. It will be up there with the tear gas canister being thrown back at police in Ferguson, the lone demonstrator in Tiananmen Square facing tanks, Nick Ut's image of a little girl so badly burned by napalm, the girl screaming over Jeffrey Miller's dead, bloody body at Kent St,

And Bree Newsome, defying police and removing the Confederate flag.

Righteous. Power

She's an artist. I'm sure she knew it would be good. But no way could she know the power and beauty that it would display. It's down right proactive in its glory.

Me too! The little we can do to help it and Bree Newsome gain their spot in history, we should do.



And thanks!

My mom would always tell me how ladies didn't back talk, ladies didn't express strong opinions, ladies followed the rules, ladies didn't climb in trees. By the time I was 15 I had figured out I wasn't a lady and never would be and was glad of it.
