Highly advise going to ACLU to learn about your rights if you are here, but not a citizen of the US. I'm not an expert, just a reader of articles and legislation. #loveoverfear #encouragement #antifascist #goodtrouble #separationofchurchandstate

I went to the Jimmy Carter public visitation in the Capitol Rotunda last night. My friend and I arrived around 9pm. It was below 20 degrees with the wind chill.

Wait time? 3.5 hours. Thousands of people were waiting outside in the freezing cold for hours late at night to honor Jimmy Carter.
