It's scary it will now be even more exhausting & harder to feel joy & free...

I worry for my brown friends & my gay friends being safe in their own neighborhoods in cities that most would believe to be "liberal" & accepting (and I hate using the words liberal & conservative in this regard, but it's the lingo)
I think from looking at the map, the cities were not the problem. There were small blue blips in almost every state in largely populated areas. It's the large red areas in small towns that stops progress. That is definitely the problem in Missouri. Blue in KC, Blue in St. Louis, and red everywhere else.
