Oklahoma Democratic Convention: Chair Deatrick Speaks on Fight Back Panel

At the Oklahoma Democratic Party Convention, Chair Deatrick spoke about how to fight back, resist and persist in the streets, in our classrooms, in the courtrooms and in the halls of power: “No matter how bad it may seem, I am confident in two things: fighting for everything we hold dear is the right and necessary fight, and the people will prevail. Not as quickly as we all hope, and maybe not before a lot of damage is done, but we will prevail and we will win again.”
