We all know how this election went...It is a sad time for Americans. There is uncertainty and fear looming over us. I cannot believe this is is happening. I hope you know that you are loved and seen. I will not stop fighting for my and others basic human rights EVER. Regardless of where you stand, please hear me out, as I am trying to hear you out and understand how this could have happened. I speak for a lot of people in this episode. Please hear me and other liberals out and try to understand how we feel. The only way we will move forward is having empathy and compassion for one another. We are one country divided by hatred and close-mindedness...IT HAS TO END. We have to love one another and LISTEN to each other's experiences and stories. We must have empathy for situations we will never personally experience. It is important to listen to women, immigrants, people of color, and LGBTQ+ on our lived experiences of what is going on in this country. Please... just listen.
