"Before the coronavirus pandemic, it was encouraging to watch millions of people all over the world out on the street marching for climate change and now millions are marching for Black Lives Matter and social justice." The coronavirus pandemic has made it apparent that these issues intersect.
"As the Republicans push for more drastic crack downs using military force to silence protestors, they have nominated candidates who no longer represent the American people. This party is now on par with a domestic terrorist group, with QAnon candidates and the NRA arming Republican extremists."
"When I am elected, I will convene peace talks between law enforcement, Black Lives Matter, Antifa, the Proud Boys, Patriot Prayer and others ," said Zwinak. "We must talk and we must listen. We can bring peace to the American communities on fire."- Sustainability
