Looking for an hour of beautiful music? Watch the talented Victoria Canal who played at the Kennedy Center 2/15/2025 and stood strong against this president with an Anti-T t-shirt and donating her fee to activists for Trans equality. A new favorite talent!

Looking for some independent sources of news & information, check out the list here. And I agree with this writer, spread the word.
