The Locked Door with No Key: Why Ohio’s SB 153 Threatens Our Voting Rights Imagine being told you must enter a building to access your rights—to speak, to be counted, to shape the laws that govern your life. The door is locked, and you're told you need a key. But no one will tell you what kind of key you need. Some folks bring house keys. Others arrive with driver’s licenses, birth certificates, even passports. They jiggle them in the lock—nothing works. They aren’t denied because they’re unqualified.

Put your words in poems, ha2ku, song, shouts, chants, raps, and/or articles. Let them be heard and they may be the weapon that slay the one whose foot is on your neck.
Nuff said
Peace & 1hunidyears
