Who Can Share

At Little Blue Texans, I believe everyone’s story matters. Whether you want to share a personal essay, an op-ed, or a reflection on life in Texas, I’d love to hear from you.

This space is for anyone with a story about compassion, courage, and standing up for what you believe in.

Submissions containing hate speech, personal attacks, or content meant to divide or harm will not be published.

Progressive Texans and other “blue dots” living in conservative places who want to share what it feels like to hold your values when it’s hard.

Moderate or conservative voters who feel called to speak out against extremism, division, or cruelty in your own communities or parties.

Anyone who believes empathy matters more than winning an argument.

If you’ve ever felt alone in your convictions, or wondered if your voice makes a difference, you are welcome here.
