Sept. 25, 2025 Editor, The News-Gazette: This morning, Sept. 25, the Green Party presidential ticket - Drs. Jill Stein and Butch Ware were on Democracy Now!
For the first time, I was able to get behind reparations. Let me tell you why.
I realized that I am the Green Party. I am America. And, the government still sterilizes poor and disabled women! I just read “Unnatural Selection” by Mara Hvistendahl. These things matter. Sterilization of people with disabilities is harrowing. I can understand why people need remuneration for the “services” that were forced upon their ancestors.
People who do not like hearing about this are just ignorant of how their actions hurt people. And, it does not matter if the Green Party does not win 5% this fall. We will continue to get on the ballot. We will continue to fight for what is right: our society’s accountability for all of our ignorance.EMILY PFISTER Buena Vista
