   You know they’ve jumped the shark in Florida when they start banning the poem Amanda Gorman presented at Biden’s inauguration.

     @georgetakei Well, you have to HOPE that'll be enough for people to notice they've gone off the deep end, even for THAT crowd...

     @georgetakei Amanda: Rather than being devastated, be proud of work that those who live in fear want to ban because it shows them their own fear, their own prejudices and the parts of themselves they believe to be ugly, unwanted.

     It takes great courage to examine what we see as the worst parts of ourselves. Most shy away from it but the only way to heal, to grow, is to bring it out into the light, to offer care and attention. Work like yours continues to plant seeds of joy, of determination and of curiosity. Inspire the child willing to discover what is SO powerful about your ideas that others want to hide it. Continue to be brave. 🫂

     @georgetakei It feels like we're all living in a horrible, dystopian nightmare these days... 😣 😠
