“I’m just thrilled to be with people who are down for sticking together, and taking action together and attending local meetings and writing postcards. It’s just all so incredibly effective — everybody sending out a tiny bit of energy and if we can just tip the activism scale a little bit this time, we’re gonna do really well. We're gonna take the House and the White House and maybe even the Senate, we just got to give it that extra push. It all depends on us.”
—Steve Brodner at Bette’s Speakeasy

It’s not every day that a truly great artist gives us a visual pep talk.
