This is why teaching the humanities is crucial to critical thinking & reading analysis. Composition/Argument & Rhetoric courses, like those I taught, aim to elevate arguments beyond logical fallacies & empty claims. Colleges & universities, pls fund Lit & History departments.

Trevor Noah whines that people are fleeing high-tax blue states & moving in droves to low-tax states like Texas, where the jobs are. Doesn’t understand why people like freedom. Also predicts the Biden years will be the Great Depression.



I'm thrilled my poem "Crows of White Plains" was included in this issue alongside so many poets I admire. Please read, like, & share.

It is a big deal that Trump is out. It is a big deal that McConnell can’t turn the Senate into a graveyard anymore. But be clear. This isn’t where we rest. The real work of ending poverty and racism is still before us. We have system changing work yet to do.
