E Pluribus Unum. Great stories help us understand the past, make sense of the present and imagine a better future.

@TheDocSociety Today feels cloudy despite the sun, tears fall like a soft cool rain, oddly welcome as they are prompted by a loss as large as the gift that was Jess Search.

Today is a defining day in the fight against deforestation: EU leaders will agree on the final text of a law that could help save the world’s forests & protect communities that depend on them. To get this right, the law must respect Indigenous Peoples’ rights.

@TABULA4 @TABULA4 it's not Tabula Rasa- thankfully wisdom and experience accrue--yet a fresh start is a lovely thing, and always better with cocktails and friends.

When I met @POTUS the other day at @WhiteHouse, I briefly mentioned the fact that my son also had an Irish connection. ☘️
Today, this amazing letter arrived in the post!
Son is now over the moon...

A word to the wise: @YoungPlatoFilm is an inspirational doc that will have you laughing, crying, and (most importantly) learning heartbreaking, uplifting life lessons. A beautiful film about the pain and wonder of childhood, and the healing power of reconciliation. With Elvis!

YOUNG PLATO argues not just for the importance of empathy but for teaching it to young children — and that it can be taught — to help resolve societal and personal problems. In US cinemas as of Sept 23.

PRAY FOR OUR SINNERS would make a great companion piece to THE JANES, like a warning of what removing abortion/contraception access can lead to, but also SCHOOL LIFE and YOUNG PLATO (about N Ireland) and how incredible it is that these teachers are caring for kids so well #TIFF22

@pauvaccaro @Together_Films @SarahMosses ❤️and kudos to director @CynthiaLowen - thanks for making this, it is so important right now.

[Patricia Finneran @TriciaFinn]

@templeton_fdn ❤️Love a good question. Funny how folks can't agree on what are "the virtues." My answer: curiosity. I'm inspired by how children ask questions, not to gain power but to enhance their understanding. Check out @YoungPlatoFilm

On the passing of the Queen, I'm thinking about wisdom, legacy and that peace is a process. At a school in Belfast, Northern Ireland wee lads are learning to think, practicing peace and offer a lesson to us all. @YoungPlatofilm https://t.co/uAstgMxWBv via @YouTube

[Patricia Finneran @TriciaFinn]

@maureendowd #nytimes captures the complex sentiments many Irish Americans feel on the Queen's passing.
