I wont return to the disgusting past I was born into with separate doors, bathrooms, tables, water fountains etc for whites and "coloreds"- a Jim Crow world supported by the KKK and Southern Evangelicals.
They had these kind of water fountains in my school.

It’s hard to balance my kids’ becoming more independent and thinking about them moving away, and trying to help my mom as I have to slowly take over things for/from her. I’m tired.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Even if you *agree* with Trump that we should greatly prioritize our own problems, you should support foreign aid. For a fraction of our budget, we can reduce the sorts of problems abroad that can eventually make it to our borders. Tamar Jacoby on USAID:
