Sen.Rand Paul is against Mike Pompeo for State because he says a diplomat, not a war-monger, should be Secretary of State; and against Gina Haspel at CIA because she's on record for having supported torture. Bravo to politicians when they take principled positions.

Not enough to create small acts of kindness; we must create big acts of kindness too. "Small acts" stay in the private sphere; we need kindness in the public sphere too. UNKIND to reject refugees; UNKIND to gut the Clean Water Act; UNKIND to withhold health & safety from children

I think the key is for us to stand up for each other when we see it done. We need sisterhood to be proactive and courageous.

If a woman owns her own voice without apology, she is likely to be seen by some as grandiose or arrogant. That is the kind of subtle, internalized misogyny that all of us - women as well as men – need to be aware of.

If you think of yourself as a cell in the immune system of a diseased world, then your own natural intelligence will guide you to ways you can best contribute to its healing.

“Be a nuisance where it counts. Do your part to inform & stimulate the public to join your action. Be depressed, discouraged, and disappointed at failure & the disheartening effects of ignorance, greed, corruption & bad politics– but never give up.”

In terms of govt action, we’re a society more intent on protecting our guns than on protecting our children. Students have risen up; I hope moms and dads will be next.”#IWillMarch so no child ever has to worry about texting their parents a final ‘I love you.’” — Alex Wind, Junior

Definitely. But small kindnesses are not enough. We need big kindnesses too. There is some really big hate our there and it needs to be countered by some really big love.

Alexis de Tocqueville said “America is great because it is good.” We will reclaim our greatness only by reclaiming our goodness. Individually we’re as decent as any other people, but we need to express our goodness in the public as well as the private sphere. #collectivekarma
