Laurence Tribe: It’s not over. The resistance is about to ignite
MSNBC

This video is well worth seeing and hearing. Laurence Tribe is not of the "all is lost" school of thinking.

In 1854, in slavery days, the very first Republican document to be widely circulated said this: "For ourselves, we shall resist it by speech and vote, and with all the abilities which God has given us. Even if overcome in the impending struggle we shall not submit. We shall go home to our constituents, erect anew the standard of Freedom, and call on the People to come to the rescue of the country from the domination of Slavery. We will not despair: for the cause of Human Freedom is the cause of God." In our own times, we may need to take a similar stance.

WTF, #MSNBC?
U preemptd yur excellent weekend programming, #TheWeekendMSNBC & #AliVelshi, & now U've silenced #MorningJoe in favor of your anodyne streaming news cos-play called Now? This→when we need analysis & convo these shows bring us (yes, w/controvrsy; →how public discourse works through it: w/discussion). Shocking that NBC/Comcast do not understand own co's programs & raison d'etre. Bring back #JoeNBC & #MorningMika. May drive me crazy sometimes, but we need the dialog

@GreenFire

Right on, great 20sec segment (above post) from his speech

#alivelshi @velshi (posting here on Mastodon today)

mentioned it on #msnbc on his Sat or Sun show. He wonders if it will be listened to, bc the news sucks so much time away from the normal intelligent stuff
