I always look forward to the short reading lists you add to the end of these. So thoughtfully curated and thought provoking. This week’s blend was especially potent. Thank you.
Thanks for the article on female voices and Dr Fiona Hill’s testimony. My consequent reading up on her testimony reignited hope that there still are steely, moral, and intelligent figures working on the behalf of all of us. Have a good weekend!
Your photos are always so simple and so wonderful — I really enjoy reading this series! What is the little work in progress that is being done? I am so curious about the end result.
