I spoke to a retired educator about the importance of teaching kids accurate US history. They lamented, "A student told me our military has raped & pillaged people in poor countries. I was horrified he said such misinformation. I sat him down & corrected him."

Y'all—& I say this as the brother of a US Marine—our standard must be justice. Acknowledging that members of the US military committed such atrocity isn't anti-American—but what true Patriotism looks like. Let's demand justice above all.

Me: We need to stand United for justice for all people. You’re entitled to your personal religious or political beliefs—but those beliefs don’t supersede the requirement of equal access to justice for Black and brown people, women, immigrants, faith minorities, LGBTQ people, low income people, or people with disabilities.

Troll: You had me until lgbtq

Me: So here’s how this works. Either you champion equal access to justice for all people—or you’re on the wrong side of history. Choose justice.
