My father passed away suddenly in 2013.
Growing up, my father would scream at the TV against the Tea Party, demanding it would ruin America. That far right Christian fundamentalists would be our downfall.
I'm not a big believer you must honor your parents.
But if I go to jail over standing up for what's right, for making change, for combating bigotry, at least I can tell the judge "My Dad said it was okay"
If you wanna honor Gilby, confront those in your life who are complacent and are ignoring what's happening. Help a family in need with dinner. Volunteer at your local organizations like libraries. Download critical data for offline storage to share when it's taken down. Call and email your representatives relentlessly (yes, it's working). Help out your neighbor.
This is not a red versus blue fight like they want. This is the corrupt versus the just, and you can find people on both sides.
And if I disappear, and you find me on Jail Tracker, just know, I'm here and I'm making my family proud.
