Back to posting my black history newsletter. I’ll be focusing periods political backlash in our country's history and how black people responded.

We start with the story of a man who fought in the Revolutionary War, then fought for the right to vote. runitback.substack.com/p/the-first-...

Power ranking of places to work in D.C. after a couple months here:

1. La Cosecha, the Latin food court next to Union Market (great coffee)
2. MLK Library by the Portrait Gallery (great views)
3. Sidamo on H Street (great chaos factor...they played a podcast interview with Donald Duck one day)
