We’re Not Going Back
This photo is from the 1992 March For Women’s Lives which drew half a million protestors, making it one of the largest protests ever in DC at that time. I was there. And 30 years later, I’m still having to fight for my rights. Continue reading We’re Not Going Back

You Can Go Home Again
Time and distance and Covid have changed how we all relate to each other. No, not with how we still kiss and hug when we see each other. Instead, we all chose to focus on the joy we had at all being together again instead of the long-running disagreements highly opinionated people will always have.

There was talk of driving into Washington, DC on the day of the State of the Union speech and of driving by the White House to tell President Biden how they felt about mask and vaccine mandates. Washington, DC is shut down pretty securely for the SOTU speech, so the big rally on The Mall turned out about 2 dozen people, most of them there … Continue reading The Unbearable Whiteness Of Being: USA!
