Was told today about Indigenous people in Brazil who were desperate to vote against Bolsonaro. There were no polling booths in their villages so they got buses to the city, and when the military blocked their buses many miles from the city they got off and walked there. Fight for your vote, always.

There’s something happening here
What it is ain’t exactly clear
There’s a frog with a cape over there
Tellin me, I got to beware

You better stop, children

Everybody look, they’re croaking now

As music by Lebanese singer Fairuz played in the background, memories poured forth of a city leveled by war. (1/5)
