[1]Talarico for Texas
It's time to start flipping tables.
My granddad was a Baptist preacher in South Texas.
He taught me that we follow a barefoot rabbi who gave us two commandments:
love God and love neighbor.
Because there is no love of God without love of neighbor.
Every single person bears the image of the sacred; every single person is
holy. Not just the neighbors who look like me or pray like me or vote like
me — all of my neighbors.
The billionaires of this country divide us by party, by race, by gender,
by religion, so we don’t notice they’re defunding our schools, gutting our
healthcare, and cutting taxes for themselves and their rich friends.
It’s the oldest strategy in the world: divide and conquer. But we will not
be conquered.
They want to keep us from seeing all that we have in common.
They want to keep us from realizing there’s far more that unites us than
divides us. Because once we do, we’ll come together — across party, across
race, across gender, across religion — to take back power for ourselves
and our communities.
2,000 years ago, when the powerful few rigged the system, that barefoot
rabbi walked into the seat of power and flipped over the tables of
injustice.
To those who love this state, to those who love this country, to those who
love our neighbors: it’s time to start flipping tables.
Thank you for being in this struggle with me.
