Me getting off an Amtrak in Penn Station on Friday: Whaaa, where… this is Penn now??

Me getting off an LIRR train today in the still-crappy, under-construction part of Penn: Ah yes. This is familiar.

JFF's Ana Gutierrez reminds us to "Take a step back. Think about your own work and ask yourself - who’s missing? Who could be here? Who would we need to help us get out of the state that we are in?"

“JFF does not have a continuum, we have a framework with arrows that go every which way. We are conscious of the permeability of workplace learning and we really rely on a collaboration of #JFFPathways leaders across the country.”

— JFF's Charlotte Cahill

👏 THANK YOU LEADERS!

[my book is better than my tweets @MichellCClark]

when you’re scared to hit “publish”, remember:

-if your thing flops, we'll forget by tomorrow
-the way that people respond can be a bonus, but it's not indicative of your thing's worth
-sharing your thing might encourage someone who's also scared to share their thing

Venting: i’ve been contacted at least three times this week for interviews by foundations or consultants who are writing reports about the need to fund movement building work. I hope we are not entering an era where we need to research this into the ground.
