Yesterday, I got an email from a new group – under the umbrella of Fast Action, which has been around a while – and I must say it’s about time. It’s called HEAL to Win, and it aims to support and recruit progressive candidates running for seats on school boards. Republicans have been way, way ahead of us on this for decades, which is a large chunk of why so many people, especially younger people, are so easily fooled by the Saffron Sauron and his band of orcs. They are offering a free digital tool kit on how to launch, manage and win a run for a local school board seat. This is not something I could do, or just anyone, though there are people who could and don’t know it. I’m attaching the link so you can pass it on.

This is almost 20 minutes long, and you a welcome to view it all, but all I want y’all to see is the first 8 minutes or so (You’ll know when she changes the subject.) I can cut minutes off the front, but not off the end, or I would have done so.
