An ongoing discussion with Reverend Irene Monroe about race and the post-election environment. This episode features the musical "The Scottsboro Boys," presented by the Speakeasy Theater, and upcoming opportunities for activism.
The impetus for this story began when my neighbor told me she was moving to Millis, MA, so her toddler could attend the Sprouts Farm/Forest Preschool. In projecting, what I heard was: there is a media and technology backlash brewing among young parents!
I was thrilled. I have been waiting for the backlash only because I feel I have been witnessing the need for a step-back.
November is Trans Awareness Month and one group of artists is looking to raise awareness about transgender identity and experience with a new art show up at Gallery 263 in Cambridge.

Football is responsible for more injuries than all of the three other major sports combined. Especially, the children who play football also have too many injuries. Thankfully, players in these times have to be removed from games if they suffer a head injury; mainly a concussion.
The idea for this project came after Stellabella Toys in Inman Square closed this summer. I couldn’t reconcile the “store closing” sign with what my eyes were seeing in the neighborhood.
An interview with Marieke Van Damme, Executive Director of the Cambridge Historical Society. She discusses this year's theme - the past, present and future of affordable housing in Cambridge.
To cap off what has been a beautiful fall October day, I strolled happily to the Lily Pad in Inman Square Cambridge to take in a tunefoolery concert. Tunefoolery, of you are not aware is a group of musicians who have had mental health issues. These talented players play instruments, including guitars, accordians, flutes, clarinets, pianos etc. Some play acapella. Some play instruments and sing.
Distillers and brewers from across New England showcased their delicious wares today in @CambMA at the Local Craft Spirits Festival, organized by the Sustainable Business Network of Massachusetts @SBNMass .
