A Brief Delay – Friday into Tuesday…
This week’s Freedom Fridays installment will be delayed until after the Card of the Week on Monday, so I can focus on my upcoming workshop. Thanks!
Freedom Fridays, Lesson 5: Remember Professional Ethics
In this week’s “Freedom Fridays,” we examine how tyranny may be hampered when the professionals who must attend to its paperwork and programs refuse.
My Lughnasadh Poetry Tradition
Each Lughnasadh, it’s my tradition to share this sublime Mary Oliver poem. Let the immeasurable come.
Let the unknowable touch the buckle of my spine.
Freedom Fridays, Lesson Four: Take Responsibility for the Face of the World
In today’s Lesson 4, we look at the power of symbols. The symbols of today enable the reality of tomorrow. Do not look away; do not normalize hatred.

Blessings on this ancient Celtic holy day of feasting, fire, and thanksgiving. Named for shining Lugh, let us gather in and share our first harvests.
Freedom Fridays, Lesson 3: Beware the One-Party State
Freedom Fridays continues, examining the dangers of a one-party system. Think we’re not in that kind of danger? Think again. We may already be there.
Now We Are Six (-ty Five)

Freedom Fridays: Lesson Two – Defend Institutions
In our 2nd lesson from Timothy Snyder’s “On Tyranny,” we look at the necessity of society’s institutions, and how defending them protects our freedom.
Freedom Fridays: Lesson One
We begin Lesson 1 of Timothy Snyder’s “On Tyranny” today. Because I believe this is why we are here, with our very unique skills, arts, and knowledge.
