An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

STOP touting the lies of the “Great Replacement Theory.”

13 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

Stop amplifying and legitimizing the poisonous fiction known as the “Great Replacement Theory.” It is not policy. It is not patriotism. It is not truth. It is a conspiracy theory rooted in fear, division, and racial resentment — and it has no place in the leadership of the United States of America. The America we know today was built on land first inhabited, stewarded, and civilized by Indigenous Peoples long before any European ships touched these shores. That is historical fact. Yet instead of honoring truth, you flirt with narratives that portray demographic change as some kind of threat, as if diversity were an invasion rather than the very fabric of this nation. Why are you so afraid of brown people? Why do you continue to indulge rhetoric that belittles, marginalizes, or demonizes those who are not of European descent? America is not defined by one race, one religion, or one ancestry. It never has been. It is defined by ideals — liberty, equality, opportunity, and human dignity. We are all human beings. Or did you forget that? Words from national leaders carry enormous weight. When you echo or tolerate language tied to replacement conspiracies, you do not merely “debate ideas” — you inflame hatred, embolden extremism, and deepen the fractures that already strain this country. Leadership demands responsibility. Reject these lies. Stop normalizing narratives that pit Americans against one another based on race or origin. Speak with clarity. Speak with courage. Speak with respect for the truth and for the people you were elected to serve — all of them. America’s strength has always come from its diversity, its resilience, and its capacity to grow beyond fear. Act like it.
