"The bottom line is this: if we want to bring about real change, then the choice isn’t between protest and politics. We have to do both. We have to mobilize to raise awareness, and we have to organize and cast our ballots to make sure that we elect candidates who will act on reform."...
"Watching the heightened activism of young people in recent weeks, of every race and every station, makes me hopeful. If, going forward, we can channel our justifiable anger into peaceful, sustained, and effective action, then this moment can be a real turning point in our nation’s long journey to live up to our highest ideals.
Let’s get to work."

Michelle Obama implores Americans to "vote for Joe Biden like our lives depend on it"
Former first lady Michelle Obama delivered an impassioned speech at the first night of the Democratic National Convention, urging Americans who may have skipped the 2016 election to support Joe ...

Without naming the president, Obama offered her assessment that Mr. Trump "cannot meet this moment." "He is clearly in over his head. It is what it is," she said, echoing Mr. Trump's own remark in an Axios interview a few weeks ago, when challenged about the fact that 1,000 Americans were dying each day as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. "If you think things cannot possibly get worse, trust me, they can; and they will if we don't make a change in this election. If we have any hope of ending this chaos, we have got to vote for Joe Biden like our lives depend on it," Obama said. She also spoke about her relationship with Biden, and touched on his resilience in the face of personal tragedy: "His life is a testament to getting back up." "I know Joe. He is a profoundly decent man guided by faith," Obama said. "He was a terrific vice president. He knows what it takes to rescue an economy, beat back a pandemic and lead our country." She urged people to be enthusiastic about participating in the upcoming election and turn out in levels that sent her husband to the White House in 2008 and 2012. "We have got to grab our comfortable shoes, put on our masks, pack a brown bag dinner and maybe breakfast too, because we've got to be willing to stand in line all night if we have to," Obama said. "It is up to us to add our voices and our vote to the chorus of history."

'It will be different': virtual Democratic convention kicks off with emphasis on unity
The Democratic national convention begins on Monday with a star-studded lineup and heavy emphasis on unity aimed at presenting Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the US's best hope for healing a deeply
Biden’s selection of Harris has exhilarated supporters, who showered the campaign with a stunning $48m in the 48 hours after she was announced as his running mate. The vast majority of Democrats – and, notably, one in four Republicans and a majority of independents – approved of Biden’s choice of running mate, a new ABC News/Washington Post poll found. Democrats anticipate the excitement around Harris’s historic candidacy as the first black woman nominated for national office by a major party, will build momentum around the convention – and the new Democratic ticket. Harris will address the nation on Wednesday, 100 years and one day after the ratification of the 19th amendment, which guaranteed American women the right to vote. “I think people are feeling every bit of that historic reality,” said Adrianne Shropshire, the executive director of BlackPac, a Super Pac focused on Black Democrats. “I think there is also real relief that there is a ticket people can believe in, and get behind and push over the finish line.”

Blog 'LGBT, Santé, Politique, Laïcité' : L'obscurantisme progresse partout, les religions en sont les principales responsables. Nous avons des drogués violents de Dieu.
Pourtant les avancées des sciences et des techniques nous laissent espérer un changement d'une puissance inégalée. Décryptage.

Blog 'Marseille Mes Photos':
Une jolie ville superbement située géographiquement, qui est aujourd'hui malheureusement en train de perdre cette bataille de la modernité. Ici la lutte contre l'obscurantisme n'est pas la préoccupation première.
Mes images et photos sont orientées sur ce nouveau monde qui y est pourtant présent, qui a envie de vivre et de s'épanouir loin des obscurantismes.
