“I realize that there are lives that have not necessarily been colored by issues of oppression and violence. The problem may not be yours but the response for the solutions belongs to everyone. We must create a vision of a caring society and articulate that vision with a collective voice that can be heard. I believe that we all have an opportunity to feel our soul’s connection to humanity.” ~ Justine Naumann Greif, Maine Artist/Activist

“WE THE PEOPLE” (PATRIOTISM NOT POLITICS!)
ARCHIVE: The size of the crowd the night before the 2019 Women's March in DC was unpredictable. Within a couple of hours on the morning of the 19th, crowds were emerging onto the Freedom Plaza from all directions. An exuberant diverse crowd of individuals who spoke their own truths with great passion and energy. Not everyone agreed with each other's positions, but nevertheless found a way to embrace their differences and speak to them without hostility or malice. Like the first Women's March on January 2017, it was a positive, energetic display of democracy in its glory.

“No matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back!” ~ Camus
“In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
I realized, through it all, that…
In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.” ~ Albert Camus
