“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” -Martin Luther King, Jr.
MLK has been inspiring all of us for generations with his profound wisdom. We do a disservice to him, and to each other and history, when we fail to remember the full context and his entire speeches and letters. He was jailed multiple times for speaking out against oppression, voter suppression, segregation, and institutional racism. His words, written from a jail cell, are some of the most stirring in history. www.africa.upenn.edu/Articles_Gen/Letter_Birmingham.html
This fight did not end with his assassination. It continues today, amplified when we fail to speak out against what we know in our hearts to be wrong.
It is on each and every one of us to stand up and speak out against racism, injustice, hatred, and those trying to tear our democracy asunder. “The time is always right to do what is right.”
Every word of this, Heather. ❤️
Sounds very appropriate to our current President.

This year has been a struggle in ways both big and small for everyone. But throughout, our community has come together (virtually) to take care of each other. I am beyond grateful to live in a community so loving and giving. Wishing you peace, joy, health, and happiness this holiday season.

Come Have Coffee with Me!
During the 2 years while I was on the city council, I held over 80 Open Office Hours days. If reelected, I am committed to this again.
However, let’s not wait till then to meet up! I am going to hold open door coffee sessions, as well as have many meet and greet events, so you can come talk to me and ask me anything. I want to get to know you as well and show you how I will serve the city honestly, transparently, and equally for all.
Hope to see you at one of my sessions! No need to make an appointment, but if you have a topic that may take a while, then please let me block that time off for you. I can be reached at JeftsforCedarPark@gmail.com
My past office hour events can also be seen on Facebook.
No upcoming events
