My name's Emily. 19. Trying to find myself in the vastness of growing up.
Suzanne and Lorna are very gentle and kind people with mental illnesses that distort their perception of reality and make it hard for others to understand them. So I’m so glad they find understanding in one another, because other characters often just see their illnesses; and both these women are so much more than that.
I know more about WWII, which happened 50 years before I was born, than I do about the war Iraq War, which happened while I was alive
You know what Bernie Sanders would be? The first Jewish President. And alongside that (though it goes without saying) the first non-Christian President.
In a country dominated by Christians, run on their values, and where ‘because the bible says so’ is considered a valid political argument, that’s just as important (if not moreso) as a female president. And while its not ever been as prevalent as racism or mysoginy, antisemitism has played a role in American history (and Western history in general), so this would also be a way to push away from that.
Just thought I’d point this out, since no one seems to be talking about it.
I didn’t know Bernie Sanders was Jewish. This is good information to spread.
