As a 3rd generation Floridian whose grandparents were pioneers in Dade County during Prohibition and earlier, I cannot find words strong enough to express my sorrow, disgust, and utter frustration at the state of our beautiful state. We have recently had anti-semetic flyers appearing in our own neighborhood's little yard library boxes!! Meanwhile, the fealty to racist, misogynist, anti-education, hateful political discourse in this state, and by neighbors on my own street, makes me feel-- for the first time in my 64 years-- unwelcome in my own state.
Staying and fighting appears more futile by the day, but I absolutely hate to give the bastards what they want by leaving. But it's definitely on the table. Exploring all options.
