The election victory by Democrat Doug Jones marks a moment time that calls for a loud shout out to those people in Alabama who helped people get to the polls and vote for “dignity and the rule of law.”

It is a victory for the women who spoke out against Moore, and Trump, and those women who risked their lives and profession to bring out of the darkness how women have been treated at home and in the workplace.

I believe it is a moment in time that gives us hope in this year of unrest.
