Church and College Leaders Work to Free a Detained Afghan Student

“If you stand for the truth and for learning and all the virtues of a serious education and an examined life and you believe in the idea of justice, you have to act.” - Leon Botstein, Bard College. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/n...

Thank you so much - what a beautiful show!

Watching Mamdani's victory speech, I'm struck by his—and his campaign's—unabashed vision of the US as an immigrant society, a culture built from the ground up from diversity. It is a complete rejection and reversal of the search for a white-washed homogeneity that the political right projects.

Hadden LaGarde telling us it’s a win!

Hadden and Chelsea the new Mayor of Graham, NC.

SO PROUD OF OUR DAUGHTER Hadden who headed up the campaign for Chelsea Dickey for Mayor of Graham -who just WON!!!!!!!!!! Thrilled at all the wins in Alamance tonight and NJ, VA, NYC etc !!!!!! #HOPE !! Congratulations Chelsea and team❗️#proudmama
