#TheEnemyWithin

Viva la revolution. As long as I believe this, I guess I will now be considered #theenemywithin



Don't worry. It won't be hard to find me when you need to report me to the Gestapo for continuing to support and fight for:

  • Women's reproductive rights at the national level
  • Equal marriage protection for lgbtqia+ 
  • Acceptance for my trans brothers and sisters
  • Open paths to citizenship for documented and undocumented immigrants and migrants
  • Restrictions on weapons designed to kill many quickly
  • Safe schools where active shooter drills become a footnote in our history
  • Restrictions to keep convicted felons out of public office
  • A world where we embrace kindness over bullying and name-calling
  • A world where we choose humility over braggart hyperbole
  • A world where facts, research, and expertise actually matter
  • Presidents who don't use hateful rhetoric to incite insurrections
So, rather than hide it, I made a shirt to make myself easier to find in the wild.

One of Them

Dear women, POC, immigrants, LGBTQIA+ folks who are feeling the impact of being disenfranchised and distanced today, please know that there are still people who see you, still people who support you, still people who love you, still people who are your allies, and still people who will fight for you. 

I'm one of them.

I say that as an old, white, straight man who personally loses nothing thanks to the election. Technically, I'm still golden. 

Except I'm not because it's not about me. It's about you.
