“It all goes back to not doing something just because everybody else is doing it, but doing it because it feels right.”
“I’m loving the collective resistance that I'm seeing happening around the world, whether it's walking out of the Senate, schools, turning up for marches, speaking out, having vigils. It's incredible.”
