I’m running for Congress to represent Virginia’s 8th Congressional District as an independent who refuses to take a penny from corporations.

Our diversity and unique traits/life experiences should be cherished but must never forget our common humanity. When we focus on our differences at the expense of unity, we allow tyrants to weaponize legitimate pains & grievances of people to fracture & fleece society. #Fikre4VA

You can express your pains & struggles without minimizing the pains & struggles of others. Ultimately, the only way we can alleviate suffering and abate injustice is through collective action that transcends our differences. That’s what I spoke to below. https://youtu.be/ZMJ_AdNVOEg

There is how the game is played: the suffering of marginalized communities and the legitimate pains of people are leveraged by the ruling class to incite emotions and perpetuate tribalism which perpetuates suffering and extends the status quo. #RejectTribalPolitics

After spending 14 yrs inflating Wall St. profits & enriching billionaires by bleeding Main St, the Federal Reserve is inducing a recession by yet again squeezing the burdened 99%. I’m running for Congress as an independent to defend our common interests. https://fikre4va.com/when-the-bill-comes-due-14-years-of-enriching-wall-street/

My last name Fikre means “my love” in Amharic #Ethiopia. The unofficial slogan for my Congressional campaign is “my love for Virginia” ie #Fikre4VA for that reason. Anger and outrage are taking us further from justice, let us try love and unity for a change.
