I’m going to talk about only one right now. In recent weeks, I have been reading some books on this subject and I think it worth it to read about how many Americans (citizens all) were denied the right to vote, obtained the right to vote, and, frankly, are still fighting that fight, and causing good trouble, to be able to cast a ballot at all. For no other reason than if you are not a (rich) white man, then someone in your history fought a long and hard battle to win you the right to vote and you owe it to their legacy to use it. If you haven’t cast your ballot yet, I implore you to do so. Many of us – including myself – have cast ballots early (in fact, I mailed mine in – exactly one month ago today – and it was counted this past weekend) but the truth is that we won’t know any results for another 16 hours, at least. In just a few short hours, my compatriots will start arriving at the polls and casting their ballots that will determine what kind of country the U.S. I’ve been awake now for about a hour and I can’t sleep. Right now, it is 5:22am on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. I pride myself on my ability to only share my positive reading experiences. If you want to read book bashing, there are lots of places to do that. I avoid sad subjects or books that I hate in order to promote a positive outlook on the world. On this blog, I try to talk about the books that make me happy, or lacking that, books that give me a strong emotional response that I feel that I just have to talk about.
