As cousin Christopher says...
"Got to keep moving. Fight the good fight.
Save the planet. BLM. Get rid of tRump. Take back both houses. Dispand the police. End prisons. End military industrial complex. Treat children as people.
Love you Chris!

@JonMunitz Count me in, 66 yo, believe that every person has a right to basic needs: a home, food, education, healthcare, childcare. Will taking care of children ever get the respect such a crucial job deserves? #SeniorsforUBI #YangGang
