Our first display of the Quilt in Washing DC was October 1987. We returned for displays in 1988, 1989, 1992, 1993, and the final full display of the entire Quilt in 1996.
We brought it back in 2012, with portions being displayed in locations throughout DC.

Thank you, Heather. This is beautiful. ❤️

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Good morning to these future governors!

Virginia Republicans leaned hard into anti-trans propaganda as part of their main messaging in the final months of this campaign.

It fell completely flat with voters. It did not resonate. Virginia Republicans came across as bizarre and detached from working class families.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

These Bay Area Restaurants Are Offering Free Food to SNAP Recipients Amid a government shutdown that will cut off aid for 42 million Americans, local food scene folks plan to pick up the slack.

While the feds continue to play stupid games, SNAP recipients are set to lose food aid for the next month. In the Bay Area, a growing number of restaurants are stepping up to help, and we're maintaining the list. Share with anyone who needs it. www.coyotemedia.org/these-bay-ar...

My latest for SF Bay Times, in which I ponder the difference in our country in the past year, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the late great Marlena, & urge you to vote YES on Proposition 50.

a photograph of the interior of a church. Several people are visible sitting in pews. In the pew immediately in front of the photographer, a black human-sized cardboard cutout in the outline of a woman is visible, as though a shadow is sitting in the pew in front of you.

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.

This game is FUN!! #BeatLA

Well played, Canada.

We’re better than fear.

We’re braver than billionaires.

We’re bigger than ever.

And we’re gonna win. #NoKings

She is absolutely heroic, bringing all the anti-fascist energy while dressed for her business meetings. Epic!

More than 1,000 protestors marched from Embarcadero Plaza to the Department of Homeland Security building Thursday evening, decrying Trump, ICE, and federal troops in the Bay Area. #sanfrancisco #baya... TikTok video by The San Francisco Standard

More than 1000 people marched to San Francisco’s federal building tonight www.tiktok.com/t/ZTM9SaYhf/

We've got reporters and producers out in the field today as federal immigration agents start amassing in the Bay Area. Follow us for more updates.

What’s to stop him from razing the entire building if he so chooses?

Thank you, volunteers. ❤️

Get ready, San Francisco.

This absolutely is Jeff Bezos’s fault. I feel sorry for the excellent journalists and other staff caught up in his mismanagement, but this is his doing. And it will only lead to the Post doing even worse, which will then — almost inevitably — lead to more layoffs.

Heather, you are on 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!
Thank you.

San Francisco turned out in full force with determination & creativity for #NoKings march today.

This is the real America.
#NoKings

Well done.
