Amidst all the ugly today, a reason to hope. I'm deeply grateful to the Elizabeth George Foundation for this generous gift. A special thank you to my recommenders whose support included guidance, encouragement, and signed, hard-copy letters directly snail-mailed! Time to get back to the desk!

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.
