Memphis, We Belong Here

Last night, I joined a few thousand other Memphians in marching against the hate and fear that the Trump Administration is trying to force our country into.

The only way to stop Trump and his cronies is to stand up. They won’t stop until we stop them.

We rallied at the historic Clayborn Temple and marched to the National Civil Rights Museum. Here are a few photos I took during the march:
