"Writing isn’t about planting a flag in a moment, but about reaching out a hand in the dark. If you find a hand reaching back, your words will always hold meaning." ~ @baileygaylinmoore.bsky.social brevity.wordpress.com/2025/02/20/r...

Rev. Dr. Nelson N. Johnson addressing the NC Poor People’s Campaign: “If there ever were a time… for a deeply grounded moral movement… that time is now.”

In 2019 I saw Jaki Shelton Green receive NC Humanities Council’s highest award. The poet and activist, Nikky Finney, introduced her and gave one hell of a speech. 🔥 That night I sent Finney an email. Within 15 minutes she had emailed me back. Read that last sentence. “We will get through this…” ❤️

Keep calling your reps! They have multiple numbers, so if one message inbox is full keep trying all the others. Call them all!

Great resource.

“Keep creating and learning” Yes—this! I’m currently reading Brown’s book, ‘Emergent Strategy’ and highly recommend it—especially right now.

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

Beautiful.

I needed some joy today so I went to Pine Knot Farms Hellebore Festival in VA. I’d like to share this bowl of hellebore happiness with my @bsky.app folks. Please take a deep breath in and out and relax, just for a minute. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. #resist but don’t forget to live. #flowers

First time going off-script (off-recipe?) making elderberry syrup. I’m adding my own touches this time. Cardamom pod, cloves, ginger root, lemon peel, and Ceylon cinnamon chips. Sure smells good simmering. Hope it turns out! #herbalism #healthcare #herbs #making #elderberrysyrup
