Episode Notes

Hello to you listening wherever your feet touch the ground!  

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.

Our rights were never given — they were earned, they were won. From the ballot box to the picket line, generations of Americans have fought to secure fundamental freedoms and dignity for all of us. President Trump thinks behaving like a king makes him one; but in America, we don’t put up with would-be kings, we don't stand for attempts to crush democracy in the name of personal power. We, the People are going to make sure the world knows that our strength arises from a democratic America grounded in a healthy, well-educated and diverse nation.

 We, the People of Whidbey Island, Washington will join millions across the country in peaceful, non-violent gatherings to say loud and clear: No Kings! No Crowns! No Dictators! No Thrones!

We, the People do stand for:

•    Free Speech, not suppression

•    Peace, not violence

•    Healthcare, not illness, disease & death

•    Immigrants, not ICE

•    Rule of Law, not anarchy

•    Democracy, not tyranny

•    Compassion, not cruelty

•    Due Process, not personal vendettas, threats & revenge

•    Working Families, not fat cat billionaires

•    Servicemen & women who Protect & Defend Americans, not wage war on Americans

We, the People welcome any and all like-valued Americans to stand with us so that together we dare to create a more perfect union, building from the good up with liberty and justice for all.
