“We don’t try to directly persuade people to change their minds on a candidate or an issue. Rather, we create intimacy, in the faith that people have an ability to reexamine their politics, and their long-term worldview, if given the right context. We’ve found that when people start to see the dissonance between what they believe and what they actually want, their views change—many of them come around to a more progressive perspective. For example, if a woman says she believes that immigrants are the main problem in our society, but reveals that her top personal concern is health care, then we talk about whether immigrants have anything to do with that worry. When a man says he wants to feel safe, we ask questions about what, in particular, makes him feel unsafe. If he answers COVID-19, then we talk about which candidate might be better suited to handle the pandemic.”

I really wish the media would quit framing this in partisan terms instead of saying it’s a win for democracy, or fair elections.

i have a new poem to share with the mutants. just to show how the passion moves through one when seized with one’s art, i didn’t realize i was writing about the u.s election until i had almost finished it, around the 9th or10th line.

2020
for the moment is in us, after all,
to mount the high and angled stair
to parapets we will defend
on this or some other day.
whether boring watch or feats of arms
we rise to the moment now, and ever on.
each day, each watch, each turn the culmination
of who we are:
unflinching.
we stand against the sickness
against the pain
for the moment is us and through us,
after all.
