🧨 I Am America A spoken lament in the era of Project 2025

🇺🇸 I am America.
Not the myth. The machine.
I cage children. I starve the poor. I sanctify greed.
Don’t call it freedom if it comes with a price tag.

What must it be like
to lie in a detention center
or a concrete holding cell
or a silent apartment

Walmart workers already have jobs. They still need SNAP.
Project 2025 wants to take even that.
This isn’t about “welfare reform.”
It’s about starving the working class.

What’s working for France can work for America.
Shutdowns. Walkouts. Mass refusal.
When the people stop cooperating, the system stops functioning.
We don’t have to burn it all down.
We just have to stop fueling it.

They don’t get to call themselves Christians while starving children.
You don’t wear a robe and betray the poor, then speak the name of Jesus.
You are not justice. You are judgment.

Here’s your sign:
I danced like I was 30.
Woke up like I was 90.
Showed up 4 hours early to a 12:30 appointment.
Then tried to lock my front door… with my car key.

No brain scan needed. I’m already a medical mystery and a sitcom pilot.

What They Don’t Understand About Survival I read a post today—someone Black, speaking with clarity and fire about how painful it is when white people say “I’m sorry” after just waking up to the reality that others have been living for generat...

It’s not that we died. It’s that we didn’t.
They fear our survival. Our strength. Our memory.
Not because we broke, but because we didn’t stay broken.

🕯 Truth Doesn’t Shout (But It’s Still Speaking) Reflections from the quiet center By Carrie

Fear sells.
But I’m done buying.
New reflections just posted:
🕯 Truth Doesn’t Shout
🧭 Before You Ask Again
Because your inner knowing doesn’t scream—it whispers.

My hairdresser told me it’s been really slow lately.
I said, yeah… when the economy dips, salons feel it first.
When I left, I gave her a $50 tip.

Not because I had a lot.
But because we help each other when we can.
That’s how we get through.
