Hi, John!
Breathe in — 1…2…3…4…5. Now exhale.
Right now, many of us are feeling that familiar, sinking weight — the overwhelm, the uncertainty, the deep knowing that what comes next won’t be easy. But if there’s one thing we know for sure, we’ve been here before. We’ve felt this before. And yet, we are still here. Still fighting. Still building.
Let yourself feel the frustration, the exhaustion — even the fear. But don’t let it stop you. If history has taught us anything, it’s that our power isn’t dictated by who sits in office. It’s in us. In our communities. In our organizing. In our refusal to be silenced.
So take another breath — in, 1…2…3…4…5. Now exhale. We’re so grateful for you, this community we’ve built, and the road ahead — because we’re not done yet.
Now, let’s take a look at some of the things that brought me joy throughout January:
✅ When We All Vote Co-chairs Steph Curry and Jayson Tatum being named starters for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game!
✅ Mel Robbins's book The Let Them Theory. Game-changer!
✅ Honoring American trailblazer and civil rights icon Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on his birthday.
✅ Celebrating with my lovely Alpha Kappa Alpha sorors for Founders Day. 💕💚
✅ The new season of "Traitors US"!
