Calamity Jane

A voice from a woman that has emotional depth and concern for humanity is often shunned through strong arming of sources to discredit her psychological state. If you steal from a children’s cancer research foundation, and laugh about grabbing women by the pussies then how will humanity survive? The democratic state of America has been burned and male misogyny has destroyed the Statue of Liberty. There was a comedy of errors in which there was no comedy as dead bodies laid to ruin with tarnished souls, and grief. While widows, and young children, fathers, mothers, aunts, and humanity cried out for proper cancer treatment. Who plays God to a society in which they feel superior? Searching for answers and remedies in which a global pandemic left a saddened loss of human lives. The Lincon Project wants to know why certain individuals are offered PET scans and some are not. Where does one have the audacity to divide individuals into a ranking of class and not provide proper medical treatment to the underdog? We live in a country in which every human being should have access to clean water, education, proper medical treatment and yet we continue to fail while other countries are attempting to provide this for their citizens. Where did the Wi-Fi go for the girls stolen from Boko Haram or from Hamas? Loretta Lynn and Johhny Cash have asked for peace among the nations for individuals in power to unite families, to offer love, freedom, peace, justice, and respect. Striving to keep earth afloat while humans pray for humanity, health, love, and peace. Communication provides conflict resolution not through a nuclear arms race but through a global society that embraces love and peace for everyone. Yet, we lose ourselves in comedy and the sad clown remains a quintessential part of culture to place a band aide on the sorrows of humanity. Hold on to America, hold on to women and children and the right for opportunities and equality for all.
