Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

A group of about two dozen Buddhist monks is participating in a journey they're calling a "Walk for Peace," trekking from Fort Worth, Texas, to Washington, D.C. as a way to promote a message of peace.
On Dec. 29, they passed through a suburb of Atlanta and were greeted by a crowd of supporters.

Media & political noise about "overdiagnosis" has ramped up this year, crowding out more thoughtful & constructive debate about how we should respond to rising levels of mental distress. Mind CEO @drsarahhughesceo.bsky.social points us back in the right direction here www.hsj.co.uk/mental-healt...
The toxic overdiagnosis narrative is a distraction from the mental health crisis
Rising mental distress demands evidence, compassion and reform, not culture wars, denial or barriers to support for young people, writes Sarah Hughes

Huge moment to finally see the two-child limit scrapped. It has been a machine for driving up child poverty, which will cost us all more in the long term, scarring the lives of those directly hit by its cruel impact. Credit to everyone who has tirelessly campaigned for its end
