The weather in #KC is colder. It’s the perfect time to visit The Nelson-Atkins #Museum of #Art for Painted Worlds: Color & Culture in Mesoamerican Art. The exhibit is full of beautiful pieces and rich with #history. Plan on taking two hours to enjoy. #kansascity

Tatiana Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy, had just given birth when she was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. She writes about her fear of adding another tragedy to her family’s life. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/LKMkhZ
A Battle with My Blood

Friends, good news/bad news Friday. I got an all-clear on an important medical check-up. Very thankful for that. Bad news is today was my last day at KU Alumni. I'll be job hunting soon. Prayers are always welcome and appreciated.

As a #KU sophomore, I befriended students interested in reviving a student org called MEChA. We sought a more encompassing name: the #Hispanic American #Leadership Organization.

I attended a Día de Muertos event hosted by the Latin American Student Union. New name, same passion. #kualumni

It was not lost on me that the beautiful #HispanicHeritageMonth celebration we enjoyed tonight was at the same location where my family has voted for years. Very proud to serve on the Friends of Johnson County #Museum.

Went to #LawrenceKS to see the new #layarda #art exhibit. A beautiful display sharing the history of the #MexicanAmerican community built near the #railroad.

What a great day! Went with my friend to hear Elyse Arons speak on #KU’s campus. She lived at GSP when she met Katy Brosnahan (St. Teresa's Academy grad) there their freshman year, followed by ASU, founding #KateSpade, then #FrancesValentine. #KUAlumni #stastars
