As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

I tried to storm out of a meeting today b/c I was SO upset at a coworker. It didn’t go well. I stumbled over the chair that was on wheels and I couldn’t slam the door. 🤦♀️ OMG. He doesn‘t trip over anything. Why can’t I be more like him?! Why can’t I keep my cool?? LeBron, I NEED lessons from you!! 🤣

Bought a house phone last night so the kids (12 & 9) could use it to call their friends. (We are staying away from cell phones, smart watches, etcetera for now). We can’t figure out how to get it to work!! 🤣🤦♀️ I’m 51. I remember when you could just plug in the thing and turn it on and it would work!

The push against ableism isn’t just about individual rights.
It’s about dismantling broader systems of oppression that marginalize neurodistinct individuals daily

Is today the day I get fired, or will I be able to keep myself in check during this meeting I have with a colleague who thinks she’s in charge but you know, who actually isn’t and who actually isn’t present for a lot of the situations? I got 4 hrs of sleep last night, so it could go either way.

We're headed into the holiday season, so two things to know:
- The only items in the store that are more expensive due to tariffs are: two leather bookmarks. The other 2,100 gift items and 47,000 books haven't gone up. thehauntedbookshop.com

The chilly air on my face
Up the steep hill
Through the crunchy leaves
Over the bridge
Past the rushing brook

Just thinking tonight that if you don’t know what to do in a situation, that’s okay. Just go with love compassion and you can’t go wrong. 🩷

SNAP participants can double their spending at their local farmers market or farm stands through a national initiative known as the Double Up Bucks food program. The policy council gives each customer wooden tokens, and if they spend $40, they will receive an additional $40 to spend.
Black-Owned Farms Fill Gaps Left by SNAP Funding Delays
From North Carolina to Mississippi, small businesses work to feed their communities while benefits are paused.
