Michael Moore Keeps Promise: Keeping People Connected In These Times Of Strife (VIDEO)

Remember November 9, 2016? You may not. Most of us were in shock.

Nonetheless, I want you to close your eyes and try to go back there for a minute. It was the day we knew for sure he won. Do you remember how it felt; how quiet everything was? Remember the sense of helplessness and rage?

Fortunately, I was able to meet with friends that day. We cried, we shouted, we made plans. Together, we vowed never to stop fighting. We created a webpage and blogs and a Facebook presence and promised the world we would keep you involved in fighting him. There was nothing in the world any of us wanted more than for the results of that election not to be true.

Then, as happens all too often in the life of a part-time protester, real stuff got in the way. I, for one, failed.

Inconceivably, between the election and the inauguration, I had to move, got snowed in, lost a job, and found another one. As far as resistance goes, my actions were limited to fighting with conservatives on social media and alienating myself from my Trump-supporting family members. In other words, I failed.

Fortunately, Michael Moore did not. He promised to keep us all connected and he kept good on his promise.

While the rest of us went back to our jobs, our partners, our television, our pets, our whatever, he did the real work.

Much to the delight of liberals everywhere, this week Michael Moore launched the much-needed website he always promised he would. It is aptly titled “Resistance Calendar.”

So, what can you find there? Just a link to every organized protest anywhere. You can post your own resistance action or join someone else’s. It is simple, to the point, brilliant and necessary.

The page is rife with invitations to Town Hall Meetings where you can voice your discontent directly to your representatives. There are Marches, invitations to protest at state capitals – you name it, it’s there. You can search for events by city, by date, by organizer.

Go to there – find your fight. It’s waiting for you.

My friends, the time is now. In one month’s time, the man who calls himself president has done more harm to this country than we even imagined he would back on November 9.

We need to be as mad every day as we were that day. We need to fight him. Michael Moore has taken away all our excuses and has dared us to be a part of this revolution. I’m going to meet his challenge. Will you?
