Interview with the Chicks Continued

Welcome back. Let’s continue with the interview. Boomer chicks are you ready?

Mary: Yep, We’re all set.

MK: We’re going to fast forward just for fun now.

Mary, what do you think about the Radical Right?

Mary: I think they are a bunch of crazies. Just look at their leader. It’s hard to believe he was the President of the United States. The GOP is made up of fascists. I think they are off their rockers. White Nationalism and far-right evangelicalism will destroy freedom. By reversing Roe v Wade, they have begun our fight for civil and human rights all over again. How dare the Supreme Court take away a woman’s right to choose?

Jane

Jane: Heck Mary, it’s comprised of nine Supreme Court Justices. There are six who are Republican thanks to Trump! Don’t get me going! I never dreamed that I would live through so much hate. It’s a disgrace. How dare they bring religion into this! They are not representing the majority of Americans who believe in freedom. They are out to deny all our rights.

MK: And Lucy, what do you think?

Lucy: I think the Senate and House need some significant changes. The color blue needs to come through for us in the next election. Our Democracy is hanging by a thread. I’m appalled by all the lies those Republican lawmakers spread.

To be continued at a later date. Come back soon. You’ll want to hear what more the chicks have to say.

Hello: I am a writer who directs your attention to life in the 'now'. My most recent masterpiece is Losing the Boomer Blues. This whimsical story is about 3 old friends traveling back in time to lose their boomer blues. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and fell in love with writing at a very early age. I have written many short stories and poems down through the years. I've won awards but more than that I have won the hearts of my readers. I became a member of the Oakland Art Association in the late '90s and devoted many years to creating collage art but never stopped writing. I decided to start writing Losing the Boomer Blues in 2016 and finished writing it in August of 2018. It was with great pride that I self-published it in October of 2018. This charming story appeals not only to my baby boomer counterparts but to those of all ages who find the Summer of Love a quest for peace, freedom, and equality. The struggle for unity will never die. We are the United States. Divided is an impossibility.
