title:  Madeleine Albright: ‘I Will Register As A Muslim’ In Solidarity
text: Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright has pledged to register as a Muslim should Trump succeed in setting up such a registry   which he promised on the campaign trail.The 79-year-old former diplomat and Czech immigrant took to Twitter on Wednesday to protest Donald Trump s executive action that bars refugee status of immigration for people from Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, Yemen and so forth. Albright, a refugee herself from communist Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic), wrote:I was raised Catholic, became Episcopalian & found out later my family was Jewish. I stand ready to register as Muslim in #solidarity.

America must remain open to people of all faiths & backgrounds. #RefugeesWelcome pic.twitter.com/4LvMiZTRJJ  Madeleine Albright (@madeleine) January 25, 201719 national security leaders agree: Congress must not make refugees the enemy. https://t.co/DkGPlkrPnW #RefugeesWelcome  Madeleine Albright (@madeleine) December 1, 2015Albright s Twitter describes her as a  Grateful American, Czech immigrant, mother & grandmother, fmr SecState, passionate democrat, author, prof, bizwoman, pin collector & occasional drummer. As Trump s dystopian view of the world inches closer and closer to reality, the former Secretary of State has taken more hardline stances against Trump than many members of Congress   including liberals like Elizabeth Warren.In a world of Rex Tillerson s, we need more Madeleine Albrights.This feminist, liberal badass may look like a small little, old woman, but she has guts and nerves of steel the continue to serve us to this very day. We should all be inspired and follow her lead   we should all register along with our Muslim brothers and sisters.Featured image via Flickr
