“ we lift our gaze, not to what stands between us, but what stands before us.”
Amanda Gorman, poet, 2021 Inaugural poem “The Hill We Climb” When day comes, we ask ourselves, where can we find light in this never-ending shade? The loss we carry. A sea we must wade.

“ Even though the Wizard is on his way out, Oz still exists.”
Excerpt:
With his vast coterie of enablers willing to believe his baseless assertions about the election, Mr. Naftali said, Trump might be better compared to the Wizard in “The Wizard of Oz.”
[Timothy Naftali, a history professor at New York University]
“Many of us assumed that Trump’s behind-the-curtain moment — when Dorothy arrived and, thanks to Toto, found out that the Wizard was a…
