Giving thanks with a grateful heart for my family -- and those we invited who were new to an American Thanksgiving. Whatever is happening in our country's politics, let's be generous and kind to others.

Eager to grow as a leader & help shape journalism’s future? Join us for a live Q&A webinar on Tues., Dec. 3 at 10 a.m. PT. We'll tell you about the JSK Journalism Fellowships at Stanford & answer your questions. Register and join us! bit.ly/jsk-dec03

Starter pack: Home-grown Granny Smith apples. Add in brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, butter + love = Thanksgiving pie!

You can go home again! Two @jskstanford.bsky.social alumni visited JSK Fellowships HQ last week, the 1st time since their fellowships: Wanja Njunga, 2003, from Kenya & Jeffrey Simpson, 1993, from Canada. JSK changed the trajectory of their lives & work, giving them confidence, & new ideas to pursue.

Capturing and savoring a moment of beauty in my day... (walking to my office at the @jskstanford.bsky.social in the early morning light.) Finding ways to seek grounding and strength as we head into uncertain times ahead...photography is helping me.

Stanford's Hoover Tower lit up in Cardinal Red tonight in anticipation of The Big Game on Saturday -- The 127th Stanford-Cal Big Game in Berkeley. (Not sure who at Stanford is on Bluesky, but here you go @stanfordpress.bsky.social)

First Bluesky post: Journalism fellowships rock! Visiting Lynette Clemetson, my counterpart at Knight-Wallace Fellowships in Michigan. Now, more than ever, we need to champion press freedom, emerging J leaders & journalism that holds power to account. Applications are open! @jskstanford.bsky.social
