"Why are we all silent / When this is when we need to speak most" ugh, incredible line. The tone of this piece is strong, and I think you executed the idea perfectly. The comparison of the future and the past is so crazy, especially how we have proved to become a more accepting society, but we have regressed significantly with this election. This is very powerful for you to touch on your own life and how you view the coming years. Your writing is very admirable and your words have so much impact. I wish you the best.
Hi Willow_tree1, your concerns are justified, but remember that we do have a system of checks and balances, and a president has certain powers, but is not a king. Before a right can be lost there are intervening steps, including the courts, that can stop it from happening. It's wise to be wary under these circumstances, but try not to fret. As Sawyer suggested above, research and read reliable news sources until you feel satisfied that you have the answers you're looking for.
Thank you so much. I think this election is incredibly important to how the future will play out. We are living during an incredible time in history.

The comparison between our modern society and Macbeth is so interesting and clever! Amazing work!
yikes
Thank you-- and you as well.
Even your name shines.

I appreciate that very much. Thank you!
This is 100% how I feel. I'm not great with words so it was good to see someone who is saying what I want to say.
This is really good, thanks.
