Rich time at the ACLU/IL lunch yesterday with my pal @carynrivadeneira.bsky.social. Reminded that "Courage is contagious" (Colleen Connell) and filled with ideas and perspective by Sherrilyn Ifill. (Paraphrase: We are a thorn in the side of authoritarians. We do not cut deals.) Thank you @aclu.org!

Pigeon walking across chalk words drawn on the sidewalk that read "RISE AND RESIST." Lovely slanting side light.

The soulβs gotta say what the soulβs gotta say. My latest on Substack. It did help quell my rage (for now). The fight continues.

And in the aftermath of this election, I have SO MANY QUESTIONS, whic I can't bring myself to ask yet. I don't want to be lied to, and the truth is so scary. Anybody else feel this way? πΉ

Hey! Iβm a Jesus-loving, non-church-attending editor, writer, mother, wife, pit-bull-adopter. And because of all this, Iβm a bit of an instigator. Now is not the time to keep quiet.
