I spent all of Monday and Tuesday watching capstone presentations from students in our program. Media, Medicine and Health at Harvard Medical School.

These people (doctors and future doctors) want to save the world. So many of them are international students. They deserve the wind at their backs.

My mentor and dear friend @roxanegay.bsky.social recently joined me here at Harvard Medical School for an incredible event. We both read new work and then had a wide-ranging discussion about the creative life, politics and culture.

I’m delighted to be able to share the video now:

So what do we post here on the bluesky? Early twitter vibes? Manual retweets? Follow Fridays? The crushes we have on Wednesdays? Mondays, even?
