I Wish For Us Choice

I’ve sat down to write this many times in the last almost two years. The night I stood in the cold outside the Supreme Court Building and watched the crowds fight over their beliefs as Amy Coney Barrett was sworn into the highest court of the nation. I wasn’t there to protest or support, although I wasn’t in favor of her nomination and new title. I was there to do what I do — take out a notebook, find a space for myself, witness, and write.
