Would You Be Brave Enough To Walk Across That Bridge?
Would You Be Brave Enough To Walk Across That Bridge?
Jane Fonda said this and it touched me deeply because this is so true.
“Have any of you watched a documentary of the great social movements … and asked yourself, 'Would I have been brave enough to walk across the bridge?'" she said.
"We don't have to wonder anymore because we are in our documentary moment. This is it!
"This is big-time serious, so let's be brave … we must not isolate, we must stay in community, we must protect the vulnerable, we must find ways to project an inspiring vision of the future, one that is beckoning and welcoming … let's make it so.”
We need to listen…we need to stand on the right side of history. We cannot let history repeat itself. We must speak out, whether they are coming for you or not. We need to stand for anyone whose rights are being taken away.
If you're a woman you need to be out there, and there is no excuse for you. Women who came before suffered and died to get you these rights you now take for granted.
If your family came here from another country for a better life, and for freedom you need to be out here.
If you're Black and your ancestors were brought here as slaves or your grandparents had to endure segregation, you need to be out here.
If you're part of the LGBTQ community, you owe it to the ones that came before you who did this very thing, allowing you the right to marry.
If you are of Jewish heritage and your grandparents or great-grandparents were in the concentration camps, you owe it to them to not allow this to happen again. You need to be out here.
If you're of Mexican heritage and your grandparents helped us fight the war or came to help us fight fires or raised our children, built our homes, or allowed us to have food to eat, you need to be out here
If you're of Japanese heritage and your grandparents were rounded up and put in American concentration camps just because of their race, you need to be out here.
If you are Native American and we stole your land and now want to throw out all illegals (That is funny as we are all illegals on stolen land)
You need to be out here.
Are you getting it yet? We all need to be out here! We are all at risk. There is no one this doesn't touch, except white, rich men. So there is no excuse not to be writing, protesting, and flooding social media with our voices. We need to get out and vote to change what is going on.
So today my friends, I am begging you, we need to come together, we need to fight. We need to be on the right side of history so that we know the answer to whether you would cross that bridge. This is our documentary moment, cross that bridge and let us shine.
“Be the change you want to see”
