I just got off the phone with a close friend who happens to be a black woman, her husband is a pastor or a multi-ethnic church. She told me that the day after the election she was having to reassure friends, family, parishioners, and other across the nation after many received a message similar to this:

"You have been chosen to work a plantation picking cotton where you belong. Say goodbye to your family as you will never see them again. You forfeit all your belongings. We will round you up on January 28th, you are in group D. If you fail to show up we will hunt you down and kill you."

The terrorization that trump enables has been unleashed on minority groups across this nation. We have a rough 4 years ahead of us. As my friend stated, we all need to stand up and be lighthouses for others because light always wins against the dark. Thank you for being one of those lighthouses.
