Army daughter educated through my Phd in Alabama.. Writing and teaching memoir. Memoir and poetry are available from online stores and my web site site.
This vote by Senate Republicans is unconscionable. As my friend @SenatorTester says it is an act of cowardice. Our veterans face enough health care issues without also being held hostage by Republicans pouting over modest tax increases for corporations and reducing drug prices
Truly inspiring to be at the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award Ceremony today. I am honored to call Fred Gray a friend and so proud for him and the State of Alabama. This is a recognition long overdue.
@SHDetroit@wstorr@wdet Love this program l. After teaching college English for decades i came to realize that story telling is a way to present poetry to resistant students. When they realize that the oral tradition is centuries old.tgey are willing to explore both their own stories and their families.
@SHDetroit @satori_10 @wdet This year is very different for me. After losing my husband in July, I'm bolstered by the love and support of friends and family during this season. This program and stories help tremendously.

Politics and distrust have often kept Alabamians from living better. Or simply living. It doesn't start with this vaccine.
Ala. Is last in physical health, & providers, but for politics has refused to expand Medicaid and protect rural hospitals.

To be clear, it doesn’t ban discussions or readings on these people & topics, but it makes them optional. This begs the question of whether it is possible to teach civics w/o discussing the people & movements that expanded the civic body to include more than just white men. 2/2
