What Happened When America Emptied Its Youth Prisons Lessons from a radical 20-year experiment and a quiet triumph of public policy.

An uplifting article in the NYT’s. An unexpected ray of light in dark times.

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration.

Big mistake. Huge.

I’m a social worker working in adoption. Agencies are receiving calls from people afraid of being deported asking if we can place their child in adoption. Devastating.

Mariann E. Budde is my new hero. A grey-haired woman who stood at her pulpit and spoke directly to our President respectfully and passionately. Be proud Episcopalians. (I was baptized in the Episcopalian church but I converted to Judaism 15 years ago. I’m also proud of the many rabbis speaking out!)

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

After tomorrow there’s no excuse for any cis person to tsk tsk & pretend this is someone else’s fight. He’s starting his presidency by outlawing the humanity of some, which is outlawing the humanity of all.

I’m trying hard to figure out how to replace Facebook in my life. I just can’t be a part of meta any more.
