30 years ago this week, this book, my first, was published. I'm now at work on my thirteenth. I could (and, frankly, DO) complain about a lot of things, but I'm doing the work that I dreamed of when I was a kid, and I know enough about life and the world to realize how stinkin' lucky I've been. 🙏🤞

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson responds to federal agents' gassing of thousands of protest marchers (drums, kids, oldsters, frogs: the usual) marching past ICE facility in residential SW Portland yesterday. Gas was so thick that cops closed nearby roads. Full text: www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-...

"To those who continue to work for ICE: Resign. To those who control this facility: Leave. Through your use of violence and the trampling of the Constitution, you have lost all legitimacy and replaced it with shame. To those who continue to make these sickening decisions, go home, look in a mirror, and ask yourselves why you have gassed children. Ask yourselves why you continue to work for an agency responsible for murders on American streets. No one is forcing you to lie to yourself, even as your bosses continue to lie to the American people."
