[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

I’m not here to sugarcoat what we all are about to collectively
experience.

But I think what we can do to prepare is build community. We do not have a
choice.

Our choice is to build. Our choice to continue to fight. Our choice is to
win. Our choice is to have each other.

We are about to enter a political period that will have consequences for
the rest of our lives.

Our main project is to unite the working class in this country against a
fascist agenda. Period.

Believe it or not, building community — whether it's your church, mosque,
a knitting group, your dinner circle — is far more transformative than you
realize.

If you don’t know your neighbor, it’s time to know your neighbor.

If you have a co-worker you think you’re cool with, it’s time to get to
know that person.

It’s time to get to know the people we will be relying on to protect each
other.

It may seem frivolous, but I guarantee you it’s not: creating community
around you is one of the most powerful and radical things you can do in an
environment like this.

Sometimes even just being in community with people who are not like-minded
with you — is a very odd little thing that can help change their mind.

We have no choice but to live in the times that we live in, and to make it
better one day at a time, one choice at a time.

Never, ever think that any choice or act of yours is too small. It isn't.

Regimes and autocracies are taken down by millions of drops of small
actions that would otherwise be invisible by masses of people.

This is the assignment that we have ahead of us. I look forward to doing
this work with you all.

In solidarity,

Alexandria
