I fought for the dream to mean something real.
Robert Arnold’s book Defiance Til Death has been one of the most meaningful books of poetry & essays that I’ve read in the last 20+ years. (7/7)
where the color of your skin isn’t the color of your sentence. Where my children, your children & their children have a future again. This is my America, the one I will claw toward with bloodied hands & when they bury me, let them know! (6/7)
They will tell me to love it or leave it. But I will stay. I will fight. I will tear down the gilded facade and demand what is right. I dream of an America where the sweat of your brow earns you dignity, where no mother chooses between food and rent, (5/7)
Why are the lives of thousands worth less than a billionaire’s yacht? They will say I’m angry. Good. And her is the fire that forges change. They will call me unpatriotic. But what is patriotism if not the will to perfect the dream we were promised? (4/7)
For the teachers who teach without pay, for the healers who heal without care, for the poets who scream into silence. Why do we fight wars for oil, but not justice? Why do we police the streets for immigrants but abandon those cities to rot? (3/7)
But we till the fields of despair instead, and call it progress. I rage for what we could be, for the America they etched on pages but never in action. For the tired masses they swore to welcome, only to cast them into cages. (2/7)
“The Dream” by Robert Arnold
This could be a land of promise. It could be fertile fields, where every child eats, every dream breathes. We could plant freedom in the soil, water it with equity, and watch the harvest rise like morning sun. (1/7)
Throughout history, it’s been a case of people fighting for their rights against those who would rule them without care or mercy. Letting governments, even in this so called civilised era, take away people’s right to voice opposition to that government is backwards. Those rights won’t be given back.
I was so happy for you guys

It’s a big concern, no doubt. Squad rotation will be a HUGE factor.
Between now & mid April Liverpool will play between 13-17 in all competitions. Over the same period, Arsenal will play between 11-13 games in all competitions.
We are not the same.
I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
