Bad Bunny's history-making feast of music, dance, imagery, and elation felt a little like resistance, but more like insistence...a euphoric refusal to accept all the darkness, the divisiveness, the hate, and the oppression, and a persistent assertion of the power of love and goodness.And, because I spent part of my childhood in Puerto Rico, I realized that my early experiences there are part of why I am who I am today.

Lamenting the murder of Alex Pretti, and championing the brave patriots in Minneapolis, after what we’ve all been through, none of us are okay.

A lively conversation with my friend Chris Armitage and several hundred of our closest friends across the country and even around the world.

Chris is a great political strategist, and he has powerful ideas about how we can work from the ground up to resist and to create real democracy by building new and rebuilding what works.

As I told the audience, I work from how it feels on the ground to awaken and inform, and hopefully inspire people. I bring a lifetime of experience in the WILD to this work: outdoor action-adventure stories paired with powerful political insights in each essay and companion audio podcast. I’m an award winning mystery author, filmmaker, producer, and musician.

Oh—and I live with a wolf.

Join us for the next post and its follow-up podcast: WILD writing about the dangers affecting us all right now. And in the pod: an audio version with original music, sound effects, voices from the community, and more.
