I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Powerful caregiver/parent lived-experience perspective on complex chronic illnessβ€” research must include a longitudinal approach. Lived experience matters. We need studies that reflect that reality.

As Toni Morrison said, "the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work." But she also reminded us never to lose our capacity to be shocked.

Why is the IL state police helping ICE move β€œdetainees”?

Last night around 8pm my vehicle got blocked by ISP so that 15 white transport vans could move through the intersection. They traveled east on Roosevelt and turned north on 1st Ave.

Why is IL helping ICE move people ????

Amazing insight into how your body is responding to compressions due to specific positions.

Internal jugular vein compression and potentially other compressions- insufficient blood flow- can be made worse with cervical instability… or cervical instability made worse from poor blood and CFS flow. It’s all connected. Good you are pursuing. Best to you.
