THE KALEIDOSCOPE OF RESISTANCE

rebels arise from every corner of our country
demanding justice for immigrants
decrying hate and bigotry

amidst this kaleidoscope of resistance we must create space to strategize
find time to dig deeper
find new ways to organize

too many on the left view dc as a stage
a place for parades that ignore the disenfranchised residents of this place

its time to insist on our sovereignty
its time for the left to pay respect to dc

this is an age that demands transcendent solidarity
we need street artists and musicians
we need to map our own histories

the right is up in arms to advance a toxic agenda
we must unite to resist
we can’t let solidarity be dismembered

the kaleidoscope of resistance must move to another stage
digging deep to understand the systems that keep oppression in place

let anarchist praxis unite with the marxist dialectic
let a synergy of tactics evolve in a nascent matrix

the stakes for our human tribe our perilously high
we must overthrowth this sick system or risk an existential threat to human life
