I have a lot of confidence that grass-roots leaders are stepping up, speaking out, guiding and supporting us, pointing the way for us. Today's big Zoom call with Indivisible, Working Families Party, MoveOn, and some other organizations was a good illustration.
I have zero confidence that our elected "leaders," apart from only a handful of exceptions, will actually lead. Maxwell Frost, who spoke on the call for a few minutes, is one such exception. Generally, the "leaders" will have to be led -- by us, the people, in grass-roots organizations, stepping up to the challenges and working in unity and solidarity, working through the frustrations and disappointments, to bring about the changes that need to happen. Eventually the "leaders" will follow. But we have to show them the right things to do and demand that they do them.
At this critical point, the system has failed us and there's no one else to fight for us except us. But we are many and if we hang together and keep going, we can take our country back.
