Like so many, I am gutted by the horror at Bondi Beach, especially at the start of Hanukkah - a celebration of light and Jewish resiliency. This essay spoke to me - especially this:
“I don’t want to celebrate resiliency; I want to see reform.”

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

For much of my career I have focused on helping leaders be, well, better leaders. I coach them to understand that one of the keys of great leadership is listening.
Now, I realize listening is also a key to a great democracy.
What a great read. Thanks @karaswisher.bsky.social for sharing

This is just fantastic read from @notus.com. Democracy is indeed a letter to the editor www.notus.org/perspectives...
The Washington Post Got 21,000 Emails After It Didn't Endorse. I Read Them All.
Reading and editing letters gave me a theory about what is wrong with America — and how it could be fixed.

Absolutely heart breaking. He speaks for so many including the son of one of my close friends who worries every day what will happen to his parents - hard working, tax paying immigrants who, like my ancestors, believed in the American dream and wanted more for their children.

He’s right. He should be focusing on school. Trumps new family separation is cruel & wrong. And yet the “religious” GOP party sits idly by.
Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.”
