It felt like that was the only important thing in the world. I took a glance at my phone during a break from studying and see the headline. I immediately go downstairs and sit at the TV just mortified and crying. This really put what I was doing in perspective, and I haven&rsquo;t forgotten that since then. I stopped studying and tried to process what was happening. I&rsquo;m not really sure if I have. I&rsquo;m not using this post today to rehash what happened. The events of insurrection, nor the people who incited violence and death, do not deserve any more attention than they already got.

We can never forget this horrible event. If anything, it needs to compel us more to take action against letting anything close to this ever happen again. It was a massive failure in our country, another stain on hundreds of years of discriminatory, racist, violent American History. I am tired of these miniscule sentences for violence.<\/p><p>I am tired of the lies being perpetuated by members of the Republican party. This election was valid. Joe Biden, and ONLY Joe Biden is our president. Period. It is time for everyone to admit that. Anyone who doesn&rsquo;t, anyone who supports the insurrection, who believes in attacking our nation&rsquo;s politicians, who voted for Trump once, and especially a second time, is a danger and disgrace to our country. Trump is ultimately accountable, but people who voted him in, who allowed him in power- so are you. I&rsquo;ve never been more ashamed to live in this country than that day.<\/p><p>I don&rsquo;t know what there is to do, I often feel hopeless. But I know we need to keep talking about it, keep giving the right information, and keep fighting for what we know is right, and waht Donald Trump has tried to destroy in our country.&nbsp;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>January 6th: One Year Later I have thought about writing this post so many times.
