Jane Goodall, the influential primatologist who changed how people see chimpanzees and themselves, died Wednesday at the age of 91.
@JeffreyBrown looks back at Goodall's life and legacy.
I want the entire nation to hear me when I say this isn’t just an attack on the people of LA, this is an attack on every person in every city in this country.
Today’s ruling is not only dangerous – it’s un-American and threatens the fabric of personal freedom in the U.S.
Justice Sotomayor said it best in her dissent:
“We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, & appears to work a low wage job.”
We will not be divided. We will not stop fighting to protect our communities.

Pope Francis was the rare leader who made us want to be better people. In his humility and his gestures at once simple and profound – embracing the sick, ministering to the homeless, washing the feet of young prisoners – he shook us out of our complacency and reminded us that we are all bound by moral obligations to God and one another.
Today, Michelle and I mourn with everyone around the world – Catholic and non-Catholic alike – who drew strength and inspiration from the Pope’s example. May we continue to heed his call to “never remain on the sidelines of this march of living hope.”
