Ben Haggarty aka Macklemore, shared a harrowing account of what he believes Donald Trump stands for. On his post to his Instagram account, he shared a photo of his daughter asleep. He comments that he will not allow a misogynistic, racist president to dictate the way he raises his daughter stating;
But what I do have control over is where I go from here. I will teach my daughter to love. All people, regardless of the color of their skin, gender, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or where their birth certificate says they're from. I will teach her how important it is to be an advocate for humanity. Not just the portion of humanity that benefits her. I will teach her non violent communication. That in the face of hatred we must love each other even harder.

The positive element from all this is that we can no longer pretend that we are free of racism & sexism. The question is, what do we do now?
