Never been a more important time to think harder. A concerned citizen who stays informed & focuses on forgotten & crucial issues. Politics & real life.
@iAnonPatriot Real feminism always means respecting the woman’s choice: if she wants to wear a hijab, let her; if she does not, respect that.

@alexkshieh Non-Republican Brown alum here; I don’t care if she was a Republican, Democrat, or anything else: she was one of US Brunonians and my heart breaks endlessly for this amazing young lady and her family. Political affiliations shouldn’t matter here. We are HUMANS first.
Pope Francis, in a dramatic gesture made at the Vatican on Thursday, April 11, knelt to kiss the feet of South Sudan's previously warring leaders as he urged them not to return to a civil war.
Pope Francis was the rare leader who made us want to be better people.

Say no to most of them.
