Today, American democracy hangs in the balance. We know that Trump
and the authoritarian Right have
sought to undercut the election through racist and classist voter
suppression and by preemptively calling its integrity into
question.
However, we ought not be satisfied
with an outright Trump defeat. As establishment Democrats like Biden
have made clear, the maintenance of the neoliberal status quo is more
important than the life and well being of the marginalized and working
class voters who put them in power.
Mass organization, public protests,
and definitive calls to hold our elected leaders accountable are, at
their core, what makes for a thriving democracy—people engaged in the
political arena.
