"What the climate crisis is, what we can do about it, and what kind of a world we can have is all about what stories we tell and whose stories are heard." Rebecca Solnit.
And not just the climate crisis. Many a thing is described in stories about "what we can do about it, and what kind of a world we can have is all about what stories we tell and whose stories are heard."
Democracy? The stories about what we can do about it include the Women's March in Washington the day after The Grievance Boy gave an Inaugural Address but nobody came. People did come to the Women's March, however. All over the world, they came, making the Women's March not only the largest protest in the history of the United States but the largest gathering in the history of the world.
Democracy? The stories about what kind of a world we can have are told in Michigan, for example, where the voters either threw The Grievance Boy's minions completely out of office or kept them far away from State-wide offices, including the Governor's Office, the State Senate, the State House, the Secretary of State's Office, and the Attorney General's Office.
The stories about what kind of a world we can have are also told in Arizona, for another example. In Arizona, the voters closed the office doors to the minions that sought out the Governor's office, the Secretary of State's Office, and the Attorney General's Office.
There is more to be done, no doubt. No doubt, there are also many more stories to tell. In the end, the stories we tell and whose stories are heard will decide what kind of world and what kind of country we have.
