Greetings!
To all our friends and supporters.
We’ve been working hard, focused on growing the MAKA Movement.
We’ve held six MAKA rallies from Maine to Pennsylvania with uplifting posts on Instagram @maka25now. Our latest podcast just dropped on YouTube – MAKA Make America Kind Again with Grami Dodi and Nana Dee is focused on the fun and the energy of the MAKA rallies in Maine.
Please watch and follow us so MAKA will grow and millions of Americans will become “Beacons of Kindness” with their MAKA hats from the website – makanow.org – and by simply being examples of Kindness in their own lives.
You as Beacons of Kindness are needed now more than ever. The recent murder of a prominent political figure has triggered a new explosion of rhetoric that threatens to take our nation to a more dangerous level of division unless we act together with kindness and compassion.
There is no better reminder of our values at a moment like this, than the kind words of Robert Kennedy at another violent threatening moment in history, the murder of Martin Luther King.
“What we need in the United States is not division; what we need in the United States is not hatred; what we need in the United States is not violence or lawlessness; but love and wisdom, and compassion toward one another, and a feeling of justice toward those who still suffer within our country, whether they be white or they be black.
“So I shall ask you tonight to return home, to say a prayer for the family of Martin Luther King, that's true, but more importantly to say a prayer for our own country, which all of us love—a prayer for understanding and that compassion of which I spoke.
“We can do well in this country. We will have difficult times; we've had difficult times in the past; we will have difficult times in the future. It is not the end of violence; it is not the end of lawlessness; it is not the end of disorder.
“But the vast majority of white people and the vast majority of black people in this country want to live together, want to improve the quality of our life, and want justice for all human beings who abide in our land.”
– Robert F Kennedy Indianapolis, April 4, 1968
