a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job
This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake

I saw that Cecile Richards had passed away. She was a true champion of reproductive rights and defined what it meant to be a fighter for her beliefs. In her memoir, she told others to find the courage to lead. Hopefully, in the coming years and decades, we can.

We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn

Mademoiselle Montansier was the first female business manager and theatre director in Western Europe. She was opportunistic, bold, imaginative and carried a quick wit.
