“Arcadia” is one of the few volumes that has come with me through every single move. I first saw it as a teenager, and the way it played with words and science and time and, well, the human experience, etched a permanent mark in my imagination. #stoppard

The most beautiful moments of this #NoKings Episcopal Church protest outside of Grace Cathedral came when the cable car operators were ringing their bells long and loudly in solidarity as they were passing. They know how to ring a bell! ⚓️

Side note: lest you think this is a one-off, a sizable group of Catholic nuns, priests and lay leaders have announced plans to do the same thing — offer communion to detainees in the Broadview ICE facility — tomorrow.
NEW: Clergy are at the Broadview, IL ICE facility today — where clergy have been shot w/pepper balls in recent days.
UMC minister Rev. Hannah Kardon, one of those shot w/pepper balls in the past, among those asking to give communion to those detained. Attendees (who sent photos) say police declined
