Maia Tabet


I'll be there because I've had ENOUGH. I'll be there for all the reasons you state in your eloquent statement that accompanies the beautiful graphic of the planet emerging out of joining hands. I will be there because I'm fit to be tied with stress, and insufficient income, and no health insurance, and no vacations. I'll be there because I can't bear to be funding the killing of brothers and sisters and children all over the globe in the name of living at the top of the pile. I'll be there because the system is broken beyond repair, no matter what the "constitutionalists" and "reformers" and "realists" say. I'll be there to honor all those that have lived and died so that we can maintain our privilege and so that I can hold my head up and say I didn't buckle. I'll be there.

— Maia Tabet
