Retired from teaching and NPS. Enjoying life with husband and dog in SC. Happy gramma. Trying to believe that my small actions will contribute to a revolution of love.

Only three sightings east of the Anacostia. I guess Trump doesn’t care if there’s crime and “filth” in neighborhoods that are poor and mostly Black.

300,000 Black women left the labor force. That's not good for America. The financial success—or failure—of Black women can have significant consequences.

This piece about the heroic KBJ gives me hope. “She understands her role is not just to write for history (today’s dissents become future majority opinions) but to sound the alarm, to rouse the public.” Yay Jennifer Rubin and The Contrarian! @contrariannews.org

I taught a US citizenship class to South Sudanese refugees in Nebraska, 2006-2007. Fleeing civil war, they worked arduous jobs at a meat packing plant. Many had no literacy in any language.

But they studied hard for a citizenship exam which many native-born Americans would not be able to pass.

The SAVE Act is a poll tax.

Over 69 million women would have to get new IDs to vote under the SAVE Act—all of which, except military IDs, cost money.

As @mcclellan.house.gov explained, whether it’s $1,000 or 1¢, no one should have to pay to vote.
