The other day, I was doing my best to be all writerly. I was sitting in a coffee shop with my sister and my Macbook Pro, writing, eating, chatting … in short doing my best to imitate the stereotypical starving artist type. My brother-in-law also stopped in for a bit, then they left to do teacherly things at […]
Today is Martin Luther King Day. A day devoted to honoring a man who promoted social change. Who spoke words of love instead of hatred; words of acceptance despite difference. In honor of this day, I find myself wanting to write something on hatred and bigotry; on humanity’s capacity for blindness and their ability to dehumanize others […]
