Think back to your school days, what history do you remember? […]
Why ending racism should be the deepest desire of every white person

Lately I’ve been reading about and talking about ambiguous loss. What is that? According to Psychology Today, “While we’re trying to find ways to soothe ourselves and each […]
What I learned from one year of staying home
How was 2022 radically different? I spent one year staying home. It was radically different for me. While people attended conferences all over the country in 2022, I stayed still. When my family invited me to a giant party for my grandparents 90th, I had to say no. When people asked me to do in-person speaking […]
