Heart-wrenching loss. Women and ALL #youth today have been tossed into the churn of political backwash impacting our bodies, #healthcare and rights as humans. On this #MLKDayOfService, let's double down on commitments to Planned Parenthood, choosing action over giveupitis in her honor. ⛑️ #RoevWade

My #MLKDayOfService was helping to clean up the North Fork of Peachtree Creek along the #PeachtreeCreekGreenway We had a great crew as you can see. Among the unusual items I personally removed from the creek (along with various trash) were a stroller, TV remote, three shoes, a PC keyboard and an Ethernet cable. #MLKday #ATL #Brookhaven #Greenway

My wife and I volunteered to pack meal kits to honor #mlkday2024 and the #mlkdayofservice at the Orange County Convention center in #orlando #florida. Our table packed almost 900 kits during our two hour shift. It was a great experience and they had a DJ playing good music. The only problem was that the music was so loud it made it hard to talk with the rest of the folks working at our table.

It was great joining folks at Eno River Association building trails at an upcoming preserve yesterday. While there is so much work yet to be done in this union, and we suffer from the aftermath of a troubled history that still impacts and harms people until this day, I believe that public lands accessible for all to enjoy in principle is one of the most radically beautiful ideas ever.

I spent an hour pulling up invasive Bermuda Grass with a sharp pokey thing, talking about plants with one of the volunteer Master Gardeners that hang out here.
Because no industrial chemicals are used to control the weeds, people have taken up this task.
