RE: https://mastodon.social/@blogdiva/117502706936754188 just reminding y’all #IVoted last Sunday. my parents met here in #NYC and got battered, bruised and jailed in the 1960s, during a #GOTV campaign registering Puerto Ricans in El Barrio. i was even conceived during one of their voting defence campaigns. my parents spilled blood so we all could vote. +40 years later, i campaigned here in #NYS, against blackbox voting, and for the paper & scanner voting machines we use today. VOTE cuz every ballot is blessed with a little of my family’s ashé.
