Randi Weingarten, President of the @AFTunion, is testifying before Congress about the coronavirus response in our schools. We want lawmakers to fund public education and advance solutions to improve schoolhouse conditions--not scapegoat educators. #makeitmakesense

It took @DavidLat, who is now on a ventilator, two visits to the ER with severe respiratory symptoms until he was finally tested for COVID-19. And he's a journalist.

A deep awareness of the goodness of human beings, that they are essentially kind, helpful, and gentle, can give us courage and hope. On a personal level too, such a vision of our basic nature can help promote a greater sense of well-being and connectedness with others.
