A Quick One

Happy Thursday, Beatdowners.

A quick one from my iPhone (still get a kick out of being able to blog from this thing!)...

To paraphrase and downright steal some words from Aung San Suu Kyi (Burmese opposition politician and General Secretary of the National League for Democracy)...

When we raise our voices, we can be heard in America; we can be heard around the world.  Our voices are louder than any rock band, any army, any rocket fired, any fighter jet.

Our voices are the future; the voices of reason, equality, and justice.

We are not bistandards in our own history...every one of us writes a story that will be told.

The struggle may take time, but if we demand it, CHANGE will come.

This year, America will be the home to over 310 million people...but to bring about change, it starts with just ONE person.

ONE.
