As journalists and writers, we have a duty to use language that is accurate and describes our current reality.
I’m no longer going to talk about DEI/Anti-DEI.

If you are taking a break from politics during the holiday, good for you. There is nothing to feel guilty about.
If you re-center what you love, you will remember why you fight.
