Elena! It's so nice to hear from you. My Uncle B moved to Colorado 3 years ago and is an 8 min drive away from us. I always thought of you when I listed to This American Life and your son Ben's voice would come on. Hope you're well!

Found the post they were referring to, which is an article I wrote years ago. Time to put the auto responder on my email and I'll share a link to the piece in case anyone is interested. Glad I got off Twitter.

The staffers record the messages and I think it always matters to share what you care about—if enough of us do this then we can move the needle. When overwhelming numbers of people do this we move mountains—the conservatives have been playing a long game that is paying off

The dog whistles about the plane seems to be race based -- one of the pilots of the American Airlines jet was Latino, and I'm wondering if that's what sparked Trump to talk about DEI. On the other hand the anti-DEI related to wildfires was very anti-lesbian/woman.

Of course--300 characters doesn't always allow nuance--feel free to add onto or edit or correct my DEI math :)

Hope people will read the excellent piece you wrote Kim--and the other tremendous contributions in addressing global anti-Asian racism. We know there will be another resurgence under Trump 2.0--SIGH
