Our diversity is our strength. Considering everything that worked against Hillary in the election, it is amazing that we got the number of votes that we did. Now, we can't make yesterday's mistakes become baggage that bogs us down. We need to stay in the moment and fight today's battles. If we take care of today, 2018 will take care of itself.
