In a speech given in 1853, the freed slave Frederick Douglass stated “We ought to know who our enemies are, where they are, and what are their objects and measures.”
Today, regrettably, his enemy would be the Republican Party. Republicans know that their only hope of winning a national election is to prevent Black and brown Americans from voting. That ‘s precisely what 43 states are now drafting legislation to accomplish.
We are witnessing the slow death of democracy.
Can anyone with any common sense say with a straight face “with liberty and justice for all”? The America I have always loved is disappearing.
