This gives me hope.

So does this. Grass roots organizing is in the air. Today for the first time in recent retrospective memory we had a community meeting in my area. The last meeting, of any consequence, held in the exact same spot, was 241 years ago and had something to do with a revolution.

It is never to early, or late, to talk about community and the needs of the community members. If you have a concern, it is most likely there is someone close to you that shares that concern. If you can, open your home and have a gathering. That gathering can become a movement and that movement, a wave.

Like the vision of the avalanche, it's why we should be proud to own, with indignation, the once derogatory slur, snowflake.

We have power. We have strength. We have righteousness on our side. Where one heart beats others hear the call. The snowflakes are coming. The snowflakes are coming. Light the lanterns. Lock the door. Revolution is the lager of the hour. This one's for you.
