Impeachment Pattern: Diversity vs. The White Men

The biggest news of the day in our country — no matter what your individual concerns or endeavors — is impeachment.

And if the support for it isn’t diverse along party, race and class lines, then we definitely need a check-up as to what it means to be an American living in the model democracy.

Here’s something you should ask yourself: If students have mobilized in Hong Kong and now include middle class families with young kids to get on the streets to demand democracy for their future, why aren’t we as concerned here in America about losing it?

The majority of us don’t even vote.
