3. So many good DUers

You are sorely missed.

[sheshe2]

4. Yes they are, mcar.

I learned so much here. They are sorely missed.

5. Too many are gone or quiet.

It is still hard for me to believe that they were so mistreated on a Democratic board. smh

[sheshe2]

6. I see a few here and there on the net.

I seldom see any of them post here anymore. I find it sad their voice was silenced on a Democratic board. Yet some that tried to remove them are no longer with us.

13. This was by far the most mannered, thoughtful board on DU

all through 2016, to a remarkable degree. It still is of course, but the departures, and reasons for them, were and are very sad.

[sheshe2]

14. It was balanced and decent.

Still they were run off. They shut the lights off. They are gone, yet not forgotten. Never forgotten.

[Hortensis]

15. Balanced and decent discussion elsewhere. DU's loss for sure.

7. A Beautiful Display

For those who will never be truly far away so long as they are remembered

[sheshe2]

8. We do this together or not at all.

We are the world. We are the children. We are the one.

9. A lovely post She...

we lost a great deal when we lost so many of our African American voices. DU was better and stronger with them here.

10. This is beautiful.

And very poignant given the re-normalization of the marginalization of so many in the Republican party's new America.

11. This forum is why I went from lurking to joining

In the craziest part of the primaries and GE this place the AA Group was sane.

So, I want to say hello to all the folks who may stop by to read but have been unfairly driven away...

12. This is really sweet.

We are now and will always be stronger together!
