Avoiding Reprisal's avatar

Angie, I am frustrated with the way things are. I have watched and been worried about the very things we're watching unfold. I feel I/we should do something, but I'm not sure what would be effective. Sign carrying feels hollow to me, as well as ineffective. I have tried to think of something I could do that would make an incremental difference. Knowing that Trump measures his personal value in dollars and cents and his success in GDP graphs. It's just an idea, and a voluntary one at that.

Passive resistance (civil disobedience) requires a more significant sacrifice. It is another way to make a difference, but risky. El Salvador does not seem worth it. Isn't that Trump's point?

Hang in there. I'm just brainstorming with y'all.
