Music for Non-majors My music education started and ended in public school. I am still grappling with what I learned.

Hey I wrote a little piece about musical education for hopelessly unmusical people like me, and what I learned from the experience in high school (25 years ago) marcusmccann.medium.com/music-for-no...

A Culture of Care: The Secret to Building Organizations People Want to Stay In What we learned about organizing white folks away from the racist right.

β€œMoving too fast or focusing on perfection and self-critique doesn’t build organizations with resilience: it builds ego and self-righteousness. Both urgency and purity are acidic. They are toxic to trust and corrosive to community-building.” convergencemag.com/articles/a-c...

But I take your larger point that it’s gross to watch politicians (anyone?) try to placate the thin-skinned US president….

No, but I don’t think that’s the government’s entire strategy? They have put some chilling things on the table as potential retaliation (eg, through pricing up the east coast energy grid, given that Canada supplies a lot of power to the Eastern seaboard)
