Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I'm reading Rebecca Solnit's "Call Them By Their True Names" and her essays are so timely and searing.  I can't recommend it enough.  In a short essay she tackles the misogeny during the 2016 election tells it like it is, and reminds us how far we still need to go to have women treated fairly.  I admire her writing more than anyone other than Roxanne Gay and Ta-Nehisi Coates.  She clarifies my thinking and has the scope and breath of vision that keeps me sane.  Her essay "Preaching to the Choir"  gives hope that we can indeed change what is happening in politics if we use our community of the like minded to make certain every person who wants rule of law, equality and fairness gets out and votes.  We don't need to persuade those who think differently.  There are enough of us to take the country in a better direction.  We just need to raise our voices and protect their voting rights.  She is the voice of action and hope in a chaotic time.
