  4. In Takoma Park, Maryland, a small parking lot has become a stage for both resistance and community—where residents gather each morning in December to challenge immigration enforcement. Amid ICE cars and icy winds, they sing carols like “Away in a Manger,” turning a site of fear into one of hope, solidarity, and blessing. From singing and knitting to holiday drives, this quiet protest honors the spirit of humility and welcome—echoing Jesus’s humble birth into poverty and foreign lands. It’s a powerful reminder that even in hardship, community courage and compassion can flourish. Want to see this act of quiet resistance?

  7. Legalizing Psychedelic Usage:

    There will be a VIRTUAL public forum held on Tuesday, October 14, 7:30-8:30pm on Google Meet

    "Marylanders can share their views directly with the state task force studying the responsible use of natural psychedelics.

    The task force wants to hear from everyone, whether you’re supportive, skeptical, or undecided. Topics will include current research, health considerations, and possible models for safe, legal access in the future. The first half hour will be a presentation from members of the Task Force, followed by input from the public."

  12. Hello,

    For decades The New Deal Cafe in Roosevelt Plaza in Greenbelt, Maryland has offered a mix of vegan and non-vegan options.

    It looks like it has come under new management or they changed food vendors.

    I went to their site today to plan a visit with a friend and discovered that outside of breakfast they do not have vegan entrees anymore on their **[menu](newdealcafe.com/food-drinks/)**.

    The New Deal Cafe has always had a lot of connection with the local community around it and that local community has always been very progressive, as well as supportive of vegan diets.

    I think if enough people politely ask The New Deal Cafe to put more vegan entrees back on their menu they will.

    Please use this feedback form to politely let them know of your interest in visiting the restaurant and enjoying vegan entrees there.

    Thank You

  18. Good thing I moved to Herndon from Takoma Park, looks like it will be underwater or an island.

  19. David, a ninth grade student, had never played guitar before in his life. I coached him for about 15 minutes before we recorded this YouTube video -- where he is playing a tenor guitar -- a four string guitar.

    He was previously not a guitar player -- and is now a guitar player.
