I was invited to write about oral history interviews with family members for the Ancestry® blog, and of course, I had a lot to say. I hope you'll ask questions about your own family history this holiday season. https://t.co/P5EFtNTeUs @Ancestry

@jimmykimmel @Ancestry @HenryLouisGates I'm a family history book writer and interviewer for Ancestry and I loved the Aunt Chippy reaction segment! You have the research and the hilarious family. Now you should have us put it all together in a book for you! Let me know if you want samples.

@mskarlam @WriteNowCoach I agree. Both names on first reference, then last name only. That's the journalistic standard unless there are two ppl with the same last name in the story. Calling him just Arthur would be disrespectful/overly familiar.

@mskarlam @ShanaYoungdahl Students put them together. Deadline is early April to get them printed by May, so spring activities get short shrift. Quality largely depends on the yearbook advisor, so schools should find someone with training in journalism if they want good yearbooks, not just an open period.

Here is your roll call of people who voted yes on the bill to tell transgender kids they are less than human.

Vote.

Them.

Out.

COVID Update October 24: I spent the day reviewing data with & from the White House team in the spread of COVID-19.

The latest rush of new cases is very concerning. There are new insights as well. Will finish posting shortly.1/

My colleague ⁦@rachelnpr⁩ wrote this incredible essay about the moment her son disappeared over a waterfall that is about love and compassion and connection (and yes, visceral fear). It is a beautiful story for this moment. https://t.co/8Tkbw4HgGN

My husband just said "It's not working from home so much as living at work" and if that's not the best description of all this I don't know what is.

We stand today with the family of George Floyd as they hold services for him in Minneapolis.

The wrong idea has taken root in the world. And the idea is this: there just might be some lives out there that matter less than other lives.

Restaurants can take one simple step to help slow the spread of #COVIDー19 as they reopen: turn down the music. Here's why: https://t.co/3qZWVUnMYL
