REMINDER - Holiday shopping is a good time to get an extra or two of a few items you use often. And, if you can donate even $1 to a local food bank, it's an enormous help: they have deals w/food producers that enable them to get as much as $6 worth of food for every $1.

Grocery shopping for a winter holiday meal is great time to stock up on a few non-perishables. DO NOT HOARD. But, it's ok to buy an extra or two of things you regularly use. That ensures that if there is some kind of supply chain disruption, you have a little cushion to get through it. (1/9)

Injustice must be exposed, with all the tension its exposure creates, to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured.
