As a country, we are once again at a cross roads, with the majority of us wishing to protect voting and human rights, and a powerful, loud, and potentially violent minority determined to stop America from living up to its ideals, all in a misguided attempt to keep their power. They’re trying to change the rules before the demographic clock runs out on them, and equality finds its way to the rest of us.

In this week's commentary, I cite Bruce Springsteen, Abraham Lincoln, and Heather Cox Richardson for historical perspective. I hope you’ll give it listen on the PV app or at ProgressiveVoices.com.
