Creating a big tent is fine, great even. But that tent has to have a pole, a backbone, a set of values it believes in and policies it supports, otherwise it simply caves in and is no kind of shelter, gathering place or party at all.

"The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they're selling: their ideas, their notion of inevitability.

We may be many & they be few but they need us more than we need them.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

Today's moment of joy came early - an 8th grade boy, a reluctant reader, walked into class and said words I thought I'd never hear from him: "My book is SO GOOD!" One of his friends chimed in, "Mine, too!" My day was made by 9:47 am. (The books: Nyxia and The Hate U Give.)

Everyone should bookmark these posts. Our memories will fail us as our brains desperately try to make sense of the nonsensical, but these will serve as record of the horror of this new regime - may it be short.
