I like to stay informed with quality news. We can have our viewpoints without coloring them with hate and anger. I like art, music, literature, all cultures, nature. I do yoga and seasonally bike and walk. pic is 25 years old, when I went to England!

Mink graduated from University of Chicago Law School in 1951, but no law firms would hire a married woman with a child, so she opened her own private practice. She launched her political career in 1956 as Hawaii debated statehood, driven in part by her experiences with discrimination. /3

A third-generation descendant of Japanese immigrants, Mink faced significant racial and gender discrimination throughout her life. After graduating at the top of her high school class, she was rejected from numerous medical schools because she was a woman. This led her to study law instead. /2

What did the Nazis do with valuable items of Jewish people they deported or sent to concentration camps? They did the same thing that Nazi ICE rats are doing with the property of Hispanic people.
