I tell stories. Docs, narratives and corporate. I make you laugh, cry, learn, question, and answer the call to action. I'm an editor.

NEW this morning: The Cayuga, a tiny and long-displaced tribal nation in Central NY, has been riven by a dispute over its leader, leading to bulldozings, disputed arrests, accusations of thievery and greed, and non-Native "mercenaries" on their land.

Special thanks to every educator, friend, parent and even complete stranger who never gave up on this incredible young man! ❤️

As a child, Jason Arday was developmentally delayed and couldn't speak until he was 11.

He didn't learn to read or write until he was 18.

He just became the youngest Black professor ever at Cambridge University.

@DanSvoboda Awesome!!! And I hope you do (bring the group back virtually)! We would all benefit from it!

[Sue Lawson @sue_l]

@editingmae Congratulations!!!

@GeorgieTennan2 Guessing either an old septic tank, or an old well. We’ve got both in the yard of the house in which I grew up. Common for homes in our area that were built in a certain time period.

Not that it'll convince any #vaccines doubters but... in 1953 the US reported 35,000 polio cases. In 1955 a vaccine was deployed. In 1957 there were 5,000 cases. The most recent polio case in the US was reported in 1979 - or 42 years ago.

Dear Media friends: STOP calling them “protestors” ... they are domestic terrorists!

If this was BLM there would already be a drone strike.

Everyone depends on the USPS. Seniors for their Social Security, veterans for their prescriptions, small businesses trying to keep their doors open. They can't be collateral damage for an administration more concerned with suppressing the vote than suppressing a virus.

Imagine where we would be if they didn't put cameras on cell phones? And now imagine all that we aren't seeing. And didn't see. And will not see.

I know your pain, your rage, your sense of despair and hopelessness. Justice has, indeed, been denied for far too long. Rioting, looting, and burning is not the way. Organize. Demonstrate. Sit-in. Stand-up. Vote. Be constructive, not destructive. https://t.co/YbB14dgzr9
