Update about blog

The joy of waking to this view each morning is just so wonderful. Even if the camera sees all the distortions from the window screen, I easily ignore them. Many of these green trees stand near or by the Animas River which flows through the town.

Hope and listening to the others




The good news is here...

We are over 50,000 kind, concerned Americans, speaking up for a better democracy, a thriving planet, and equality for all people. We believe that showing up and speaking up together creates change. Take action this week with us!

Americans of Conscience Checklist newsletter came out this last Friday. Here are some of their links.

We’re introducing clear, hopeful steps to help you address our nation’s five greatest threats in our Democracy in Distress series. This week's installment focuses on the rise of hatred and intolerance in the U.S. and what you can personally do about both. Read it here

Take Action

This week's checklist features action calls from National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center, American Association of University Women, and Brennan Center, and more who are creating positive change in our nation.
