Ha! Thanks for reminding me! It's on the bookshelf by my bed. I'm on information and passion overload. I'm writing my own huge book, too, and read four or five blogs (same ones most people here are following), and have several must-see news shows every day. And Heather's stuff, of course. Good to meet you!

"Passion overload" hits the nail on the head. It's been my dominant feeling ever since we lost George Floyd.

Want to feel more inspired and passionate about justice? Listen and sing along with Odetta. Too often this song is misused to support chauvinist patriotism and reckless militarism. Always remember that Julia Ward Howe wrote it to inspire the suppression of slavery and treason. You will feel exalted!
