Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

ICYMI: “Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed information about prominent Black, Hispanic and female service members and topics such as the Civil War from its website”…in order “to remove all references to diversity, equity and inclusion from its online presence.”

A special #BeyondtheGates premiere week episode of @dcconfidential.bsky.social f. @jillianbowe.bsky.social @drjoshua09.bsky.social and visiting old school DCer Regan is live to the podcast feeds. A post will be on DC site tomorrow.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

The artist, David Cohen is an Asheville-based artist/musician and resident of over forty years.
