It was a great event about one of the most impactful writers of my life! Really great to hear Dave talk about his new book. I also got to tell Dave about how his obituary of Marion Barry influenced my own article!

Very excited to share my new piece about what the efforts of DC organizers and Mayor Marion Barry in the 1980’s can teach us today! It was great to research! Thank you to the Washington Socialist, @mdcdsa.org’s publication, for publishing! washingtonsocialist.mdcdsa.org/ws-articles/...

Disinvestment in public interest science and research to fund billionaire tax cuts is not only cruel but narrows our collective vision and ability to build a better future together. Support for public education and research should be unconditional as we organize to stop this.
