Dear Friends,
The Sandy Hook Commemoration planned for tonight at Hallwalls is being
postponed due to hazardous weather. Remember the loving families – and
we’ll let you know about rescheduling the planned “Newtown” showing and
commemoration.
You might also want to check out the wonderful book “Nurturing Healing
Love; a mother’s journey of hope and forgiveness” by Scarlett Lewis. She
lost her beloved son Jesse, and has since transformed her pain into the
“Nuturing Healing Love” that was what he’d written on his blackboard
Dear Friends,
Our continuous support remains essential to the Standing Rock Water Protectors and the Buffalo25!

“… it is clear that the coming days of celebration, confusion and caution will likely be pivotal as they plan their next moves against the “black snake” slithering toward them—a snake deployed by the genocidal capitalist forces that still, after thousands of years, are trying to steal the land from beneath their feet.” –Kirsten West, The Root.
