Wow, I had never seen that ad before. It’s kind of scary that it was effective 2 years ago.

Many years ago, I flew from New York City to Atlanta to go to a party where I met a man who became my partner. We raised a child together.

I’ve been back to Georgia a few times since, and I’ve always been struck by a sense that an old way of life centered on white supremacy is gasping and struggling to keep going.

I so hope you’re right that its last days are in sight, and that Stacy Abrams and Black organizers are going to claim the power and legitimacy they deserve.
