more than 50 people are dancing the Nelken Line around the Reflecting Pool in Washington DC

Today marks 11 years since I lost my friend to suicide.
Losing someone never gets easy, especially suicide.
My friend is the reason why I wear headphones around my neck.
He's the reason why I love music so much.
He's the reason why I advocate for suicide prevention & for kindness for all.

Heading to the President's Day Protest for coverage in Washington DC.
