Comforted and inspired, indeed! Reading this sparked that memory of the Rothko Chapel that I needed in these dark days. Thank you!

My doc would be "Why Do I Hate Keith Hernandez So Much?" It'll be a split-perspective doc: one POV is his career retrospective and the other is me Memento-ing my hatred back to the 80s, because why do I still *despise* that man 40 years after some 1986 Mets-Astros beef?

Your daily updates remind me that effective resistance can be small and steady steps that add up.

August 31 😳 The kids tried to get me to repeat this for Halloween but I drove directly to the donation center after school to never see that shirt again! 🤣🤣🤣

If it helps, I almost had to retire from teaching at 48 after I was foolish enough to walk in to a middle school dressed like this, thinking the entire 8th grade wasn't gonna roast me for looking like Dora.

There are so many layers to this performance. Suffice to say, The Resistance has leveled up.

My latest. As journalists and writers, we have a duty to use language that is accurate and describes our current reality. I’m no longer going to talk about DEI/Anti-DEI. Let’s be clear. We are facing racial purges and re-segregation. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Opinion | The assault on DEI? It’s aimed at resegregation.
The GOP leaders attacking inclusion programs want to go back to an era when White men ran everything

OK, then, Greg T, who gangs up with other "reds" to belittle students at the school board meeting.

Happy Black History Month to an immediately relevant lesson from Rep. Jordan.

Braving the wind to get a few steps in and to check the main road. It's a good day to make some cookies while calling my representatives!

I suggest those that think this is Nazi shit really truly educate themselves. There would have been no Nazi Germany takeover without the blue print of Jim Crow. Period. So cut it out and keep it in house cause that’s where the starting point is. HERE.

My first post here after a few months of listening and learning. Just took my tree down, but leaving it here to be a light in these darkening days.

Raw milk is one of those ideas that can really only take hold when people haven't seen a cow. if you see a cow from let's say ten feet or less you immediately understand the problem that pasteurization is solving

I’ve been thinking about our understandable despair a lot lately. Let’s reframe: My outrage at systemic violence and calamity is an extension of my love and joy. But I *live* rooted in love and joy. This joyful life is the best apocalypse I’ve ever had. And that’s why I will always fight for it.
