In fact, almost 80 percent of people who call America home did not vote for Trump, Elon Musk, or the Republicans in Congress who are dismantling our institutions, trying to turn our government into a theocratic authoritarian regime that serves the powerful few—not the people.But here's the truth they fear: we are not powerless.We are the movement they hoped would never rise.We are the people they cannot control.We are the builders of a new future—one grounded in justice, inclusion, equality, and power from the bottom up.No one can impose their racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, antisemitism, homophobia, misogyny, sexism, ageism, ableism, sizeism, transphobia, misogynoir, elitism, and bigotry on us.We will not be silenced, erased, or sidelined.This is our moment.To rise. To fight back. To take back the power.To build a country where everyone can thrive.We will not cower to bullies.We will not obey the unjust.We rise.Every time they try to take from us—our health, our homes, our hopes—we show up.Every time they try to silence our voices or strip our freedoms—we speak out.And every time they try to rule instead of represent—we organize to build the power to replace them.* ❤️ When they go after our children, the poor, disabled, elderly, and the most vulnerable in our communities, we rise.* 🚸 When they target immigrants, Dreamers, refugees, and Indigenous families, we rise.* 🗳️ When they attack our voting rights—we rise.* 💊 When they come for our health and safety—we rise.* 🌎 When they pollute and profit off our planet’s destruction—we rise.* 👩‍⚕️ When they criminalize our freedom of choice—we rise.* 🙏 When they threaten religious freedom—we rise.* 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 When they attack our neighbors, co-workers, and communities—we rise.* 🔫 When they ignore our right to live free from gun violence—we rise.* 🧑‍⚖️ When they strip the people of the power of impeachment—we rise.* 🏛️ When they corrupt the Supreme Court and rule of law—we rise.We are People Power United.And we’re just getting started.We are not just resisting—we are reclaiming, rebuilding, and rising.
