Jazzul Escada Instagram – Do you remember where you were during the events of the January 6th 2021 insurrection?
I was in bed that morning when my bestie called me to tell me some wild things were happening in DC. I remember turning on the news and seeing “House and Senate recess as protesters enter Capitol.”
At that point I was wondering how escalated it was going to get, but also on the other hand was visually watching how they were being treated and comparing it to the protests that took place throughout 2020 for BLM. It was just so crazy how out of control it got before Trump finally spoke out and asked them to go home.
On this anniversary, I believe that bills like The Freedom to Vote Act, The Protect Our Democracy Act, The John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and DC Statehood need to pass so we can protect the freedom to vote for all americans, limit the influence of dark money in elections, prevent the abuse of presidential power and protect our rights as voters no matter the race or background. Thanks for all your hard work so far @senwarren @elizabethwarren and @edmarkey! Please continue to fight for your constituents and help pass these bills.
There are many vigils happening all across the country in rememberance of those who died and suffered on January 6th 2021 protecting our democracy. I know of a few happening in MA just by looking it up on google. Your city might be hosting one too. =]
