Michelle Obama Fires Up the DNC

 

Michelle, Michelle, Michelle Obama—last night she truly fired it up at the DNC! She stepped onto the stage wearing a stunning ensemble that perfectly complemented the power of her message. Her words resonated deeply, inspiring countless individuals who have dedicated themselves to the cause.

Reflecting on her speech, I am reminded of how I poured my heart into the Barack Obama campaign—canvassing, phone banking, voter registration, fundraising, county meetings, convention and hosting house parties. I took on roles from foot soldier to Precinct Captain, Precinct Chair, Delegate, and Election Judge because I believed in the need for change.

When President Joe Biden announced he wouldn’t seek reelection and endorsed Kamala Harris, a renewed intensity and determination to act was felt by many.

We sprang into action immediately, working to raise the necessary funds and gather support to ensure her campaign had the momentum needed to succeed.

Michelle's message was clear and urgent: “Do Something.” If we want to protect our democracy, we need to act. Stop talking about it—take action. Don’t be passive or dismissive. You must be an active participant in safeguarding our democracy.

Democracy is about taking responsibility: “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin” (James 4:17 KJV).

Do you want to live under dictatorship or oppression? The time to act is now—vote and let’s fight for our future. Do something!! Let’s send Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz to the White House!!

I’m fully committed to making a difference and ensuring our “operation readiness.” Through my online advocacy and digital efforts, I’m working to inspire and mobilize others. We cannot afford to go backward. Our democracy relies on each of us being prepared and stepping up to make our voices heard by taking action.

Register and rally, spread the word, showcase support with yard signs, fuel the fight with donations, and research and vote for local leaders. Let’s kick it into high gear and make a difference together—for such a time as this!

Do Something!
