Why Cory Bookerโ€™s Speech Matters Booker didnโ€™t โ€œaccomplishโ€ anything. He was a voice of one crying in the wilderness. And thatโ€™s how you build a dissident movement: with simple acts of witness.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isnโ€™t just uncouth or โ€œcontroversialโ€ but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
