COVID Travel: Flying During a Pandemic

November 19, 2020 By Caroline Peterson 1 Comment

Decency Won. Disinformation Persists.

Words for Us: A Vote for We, Not Just Me.

September 27, 2020 By Caroline Peterson 10 Comments

If you’re finding yourself shouting that we’ve read about this in history books, we’ve seen how this plays out based on the past, we know where we are heading because we’ve watched other countries march into their future to the same vicious drum beat, then know you aren’t alone.
