Joelle, thank you. I too have felt every single one of these things. Every. Single. One. I’m so angry, now at myself, that I had so much faith in people. How could anyone (me … and them?) be so stupid. I am broken.
I know the hope will return, but the m not there yet. I’m too devastated.
I wholeheartedly agree with everything you’ve said. A big part of me is heartbroken because I wanted to believe that this country is something it is currently not. However, I was on a post election organizing call last night and they reminded us that we have to stay hopeful and the next four years is going to be about organizing in our communities and coming together to resist. This was a major step back but all is not lost!

I know what you mean! I’m still devastated too and I think it may last for a while. I hope this letter was helpful in the meantime.

🩵 you! Can you share with me who the organizing call was with? I need to dial into something like that.🫠
