F * * k The Red Cross
I’ll never forget Hurricane Andrew. My stalwart-inclined father decided to weather it out in Homestead Florida where he had a condo with an add-on room.

Collusion & The Rise of ChristiaNationalist Morality

This does not diminish the love and deep humanity within the … Continue reading Teachers, Healers & Initiates
Pragmatism Or Powerlessness
Democrats, independents, progressives, people of conscience; we're in the minority now in a way we haven't been in recent history - on new terrain never before traversed.
