Thanks @betsyonhudson @mariannedhe and YES! Magazine for this important piece on a vital topic getting far too little attention. What makes a caring or even civilized society? Even having seen so many affronts to basic human decency, the backsliding in this area is truly shocking!

Humanity is waging war on nature. Yet, without nature and biodiversity, human survival is at stake. Today marks the 100-day countdown to #PeaceDay – a reminder everyone has a role to play in making peace with nature. un.org/en/observances… UN Environment Programme

Good question. Democracy Now! Might you be interested in speaking with any of these brave Russian war resisters?

As we approach the Sabbath, I am grateful for the work of IfNotNow🔥✡️ and Jewish Voice for Peace & all those in my community who are raising up Palestinian humanity. #NeverAgain must include all people. Sadly, this short video clip is all too relevant today. youtu.be/Pw0lTKKwK-4?si…

Reflecting on this piece. Thanks FOR-USA “In this moment, I hope we can all agree that Palestinians are human beings deserving of the same basic rights as all other precious human beings. This should not be controversial, but sadly it clearly is.” wagingnonviolence.org/forusa/2023/03…

In recent days, I've been back in touch w/ a guiding light who inspired me when we organized a big event together 15 years ago. What a JOY to be in conversation w/ her again. She told me we both went to Oberlin. The photo below makes me happy. Follow her if you want wisdom & fun!

Thanks to the awesome @professorbetsey for her important piece in Time. “The people’s representatives could enact a national standard that closes loopholes and exceptions, righting a 100-year wrong that has been allowed to stand for far too long.” time.com/6970389/child-…

I’ve been pondering how lucky I am to be among the many who have had the opportunity to learn from and be inspired by the great Rev. Lawson. As is often the case, Rev. Barber said it best. Thank you both.

With all the challenges facing our world these days, I am pleased to learn of the #CranesForOurFuture effort underway and to see its global reach. Let us remember the past and act to build a better future together.

In these dark times, celebrating the solstice can be a healthy natural reminder that the light will return. Recently, I have found great strength and beauty in the resources of a group that I urge you to check out: centerforspiritualityinnature.org
