I had a lovely surprise last night. My housemate, DL, answered an evening door knock, thinking it was a trick-or-treater. A nervous young woman handed him a note and said she was going to leave it on our car window, but decided to hand it to us in person. She wanted to thank us for our yard sign and flag, which were both supporting womens and abortion rights and Yes on 4 (a Florida prop on the ballot that would repeal the abortion ban throughout all of Florida).
I usually have one of 3 yard flags in front of my house (a free Palestine flag, an overall progressive flag, and an women's/abortion rights flag) For election time I have focused on women's rights and reproductive justice so I have my pink flag and a yes on four yard sign.
Apparently, abortion rights is dear to her heart. I wonder if she feels the same way around free Palestine and other progressive issues.
I plan to drop off a fun note and try to establish a neighborhood friend. It was fun to get a shout out from a neighbor. Presenté!
