Thank you so much, @marthaannetoll and @nprbooks!
"With deep reverberations for today, Lane offers her own memoir, as well as an American history lesson to the child she carries in utero at the beginning of the book." So glad you're here @casslanewrites #WeAreBridges #BooksWeLove @nprbooks buff.ly/3r5ScB9

LAFD veteran George Baxter was enjoying his retirement in Altadena until his dreams —and his beloved classic cars—were incinerated. He tried to save his home and others’ on his ravaged block, while dodging bullets set off by fire. My story in @LAParentMag. laparent.com/los-angeles-fir…

Powerful story. Thank you, @michelebraphael!
Many thanks to LAFD @CaptSilverman and @firemensrelief’s Chris Stine for their support on this story. In total the Eaton and Palisades fires destroyed homes of or displaced more than 25 firefighters. To help firefighters in need go to the 🔗s in the story. laparent.com/los-angeles-fir…

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more. I'm trying to save them. You can find the deleted docs at CDCGuidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

RIP ❤️ Professor Kiah Duggins was among those lost in the mid-air plane collision at Reagan National Airport. Professor Duggins was set to begin a new chapter as a professor at Howard University School of Law this fall. May her memory be a blessing.
