My great-grandparents were murdered and have no known graves. They were murdered by people with the same kind of thinking that those occupying our highest offices explicitly avow, in an event that inspired Hitler. None of what is happening is an abstraction to my family.

Thank you for showing up for our neighbors, St Paul.
I was at the protest today: SPPD was on site when I got there, but their numbers continued to swell. The crowd was loud af but not at all violent- nor were they impeding agents "doing their jobs" or residents. SPPD was in good spirits- many were smiling and laughing. The protesters were told to +

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Q: Passengers say you're putting the onus on passengers to create a more pleasant air travel experience. What are you doing immediately on your end to help?
DUFFY: In the end, it's my responsibility to behave well. I can't offload that to anybody else. How I dress? I can't blame anybody else.

The year my father died, I had a trip planned to Italy bc I hate Thanksgiving. My dad bought my sister a ticket to join me. Now our tradition is to leave the country. We're in France right now. Very thankful for new traditions.
Actually in the spirit of this conversation, what’s a decision you made about a past Thanksgiving holiday that really paid off? I think people often feel trapped by their lives. Sharing our experiences can liberate us from that sense of claustrophobia.
On the most recent episode of VIBE CHECK, we answer listener questions about Thanksgiving, most importantly “do you go celebrate with the family members you don’t even like?”

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.
