I’m envisioning the new message I intend to paint on the back of my RRB, as soon as I get the funds together to replace 4 of the back door panels. I repaint the back only and often, reflecting the current state of our union.
I hate painting over Kamala and my welcome messages in many languages but specifically to Haitian refugees, to counter tRump’s racist accusation (that Kamala couldn’t help laughing at the absurdity) that Haitians were going around eating their non-Haitian neighbors’ pets.
What shall I paint now, there’s soooooooo much to choose from.
Phoebe has agreed to paint the real hands, so no worries re:my very unartistic hands here.
Here is what I’m considerin in case you can’t read my crawl, thanks to the brilliant, inspiring “Hands Off” action last weekend occurring in thousands of locations around the country.
Across the very top of the door I will paint on a slant: oligarchs; tRump; musk; 1 trillion $ cabinet; supreme court; billionaires; tech industrial complex
Then under that:
two hands with “HANDS” printed inside one hand, & “OFF” printed in the other.
Then under that:
OUR Immigrants OUR Diversity OUR Equity
OUR Due Process OUR Free Speech OUR Consitutional Protections
OUR Education. OUR Smithsonian OUR National Parks. OUR Herstory/History
OUR EPA. OUR NOAA OUR Jobs OUR BOOKS
OUR Social Security. OUR Medicare OUR Womyn’s Rights
Then centered in big letters:
O U R D E M O C R A C Y
We RISE. We RESIST. We FIGHT. We WIN
I know there’s many more things we demand hands off but I’ve limited space.
I welcome thoughts, comments, feedback. Also if you want to help me get this message around the country, I also welcome cash! I need to replace 4 of the 6 panels in this back door that cost $150 each in materials and $150 each in labor. Grrrrrr
