Harvesttime

08.19-08.26.20

We are reaping what we have sown. 

This applies as much to the gathering of our bounty as it does to our pandemic response and our political discourse.

Most farmers markets are open with their seasonal yield, albeit with new protocols. Coit Road Market is even hosting a waffles & BBQ fundraiser. CPL offers a virtual gardening series for kids. The Circle Food Tour features Southern eats with Chef Tiwanna Scott-Williams. Most fall festivals are no-go, but local ethnic eats are yours for the tasting for pickup only at St. Mary Romanian Church.

Our garden crop is overflowing this harvesttime. But what are we sowing for the future?

Three-ZipI can sense that the door of opportunity is beginning to crack open and it’s incumbent upon us — no matter how suspicious one is, due to past failed efforts and unfulfilled empty promises made to the black community, to step up and avail ourselves any and all offerings of assistance to better our condition…  Read More 

Willie Brown & Misogyny

That’s what Willie Brown did, not for himself, but for his former paramour V.P. candidate Kamala Harris. Knowing that the right-wing media would try…  Read More

Running as a White Man
