Thinking about John Lewis today. He said of civil rights “Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.” https://t.co/HV8larkZBS

I am restarting a blog that I wrote years ago about history. This post is about how being nation of immigrants is one of our greatest strengths and that we will persevere through this crisis.

Even if the methods are new, sowing the seeds of doubt, division, and discord to turn Americans against each other is an old trick. The antidote is citizenship: to get engaged, organized, mobilized, and to vote - on every level, in every election. https://t.co/yOvaCZYtrW

As Bobby Kennedy taught us, the thing about hope is that it travels through space *and* time, first splashing against the rocks, but eventually breaking down the walls of cruelty and injustice. And if we do our best with the time we’re given, others will take hope in our example.

50 years ago today was one of the darkest days in US history. Martin Luther King, Jr was suddenly and violently taken from us. Thinking of Dr King, his vision, and what I can do to help make it a reality. “The time is always right to do what is right.” MLK

On International Women’s Day, take a moment and look at some women who were marginalized, yet defied odds and made a difference so my daughter will have the same opportunities as my sons. Let’s make sure this never happens again. https://t.co/jVD7KAkkZ9
