A quote from the "JFK" movie-made in 1991-that seems appropriate these days

"You know, going back to when we were children, I think most of us in this courtroom thought justice came automatically; that virtue was its own reward, that good triumphs over evil. But as we get older we know this just isn't true. Individual human beings have to create justice, and this is not easy because the truth often poses a threat to power and one often has to fight power at great risk to themselves."

We have to keep fighting. GOTV!

And don't give up hope.
