Just came back from a protest/march in Metro Detroit. I didn't have any plans tonight, I was just pissed off and wanted to do something and saw on Facebook it was going to start in 20 minutes 20 minutes away from me. To me it's not about contesting the results of the election, it's about adding my body to a popular movement to resist the Trump/Republican agenda. To the people I saw and spoke to there it was more personal than ideological. There were a lot of LGBT people, and people of color, and Muslims who were genuinely fearful for what the election meant for them and theirs. It was my first time going to a protest. I wish I knew better how to make a change. I know I'm going to keep going every chance I get and networking and learning better how to organize. Building a popular movement is the only chance we have now.
