Seven years ago, I wrote a Facebook post that was the start of
Letters from an American, I wrote about how things at the White
House looked to me, I wrote that a dictator was on the rise,
using the power of his office to amass power, The patterns I saw
seven years ago are slicing to the heard of both the mechanics
and the soul of the US, In that first letter, I warned of rising
authoritarianism, I encouraged people to make noise, take up
oxygen, defend what is great about this nation and its people,
And we have made noise, and taken up oxygen, I write these
letters because I love America, To those who read these letters,
I thank you for bringing me along on this wild, unexpected,
exhausting, and exhilarating journey.
