Reporter (like a journalist but not as classy). Traveler (like a tourist, but have never taken a tour). Reader (like a bibliophile but not as pretentious).
This map shows the countries I've visited or lived in. The white space both torments and motivates me. There are so many more places to go.

RESIST.
Don't quit.
Don't stop fighting.
Don't obey in advance.
Don't stop calling them out.
Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can.
Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone.
Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight.

Martin Luther King being booked on a bogus "loitering" charge in Montgomery, Alabama on September 3, 1958. How much have things really changed since then?

Today, on what would’ve been my dear friend Shirley Chisholm’s 100th birthday, we honor her life and legacy. When there were few women in Congress, she stood with me during my first run for office. Shirley was a trailblazer who broke barriers, inspiring generations to follow.

I served as a US ambassador and know hundreds of others
Never met one before who hired a prostitute to seduce their brother-in-law or sent a videotape of the encounter to their sister
Or who committed 18 felonies & was pardoned by another in-law
I guess the job qualifications are changing…

The dirty little open secret to writing is that no one will ever know, nor care, how many drafts of a thing were written - people will only ever care about the crafted thing, and will, despite all knowledge to the contrary, assume it came out fully formed that way. No one thinks about shit drafts.
