It’s scary how much republicans are spending to unseat our mayor Ed Gainey - $130000 is the figure I read to his challenger’s campaign? We must rally behind our leadership that rallies for us in these terrifying times. What he’s done while in office & his priorities: gaineyformayor.com/priorities/

I celebrated Lunar New Year and Imbolc with some dear friends last night. There is light in the darkness, and our roots grow deep. Remember who we have been, so we may survive to become who we still might be. Cast off the shackles of who they insist we be, allow yourself the freedom to be yourself.
