As I walked away, someone shouted “Go Team Democracy!” Politics may be broken in Seattle but thankfully democracy is not.

Something that gave me the warm fuzzies today: walking our ballots to the neighborhood drop box and witnessing dozens of others walking and biking with ballots in hand as I approached 🗳. #VotingRights #ElectionTwitter

Read Isabel Wilkerson’s Caste with my book club and now I see it everywhere. She just did it again in her keynote when pointing out the two countries with leading COVID cases:
“One has the world’s oldest caste system and one has a less recognized one.” #APAAM21

[Washington State Psychiatric Association @WAPsychiatry]

#APAAM21 highlighting APA legislative wins in #telehealth and scope of practice issues!
