Interrupting the doom and gloom of your TL to announce my baby boy was born Saturday night 7lbs 9oz. Other than witnessing a covid drill at the hospital during our stay and a brief stint in the NICU for baby, it was a safe and uneventful birth. 1/2

There is little difference between white and Black Americans on reluctance to take the coronavirus vaccine, a new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll finds.
73% of Black people and 70% of white people say they plan to get the vaccine or have done so already.

Listening to finance types give “advice” to people right now is maddening. Mass job loss, economic destabilization and the bottom falling out of an already adhoc child care system would not have been solved by an emergency savings account.

My path through public media and frankly journalism has of course not been all roses. There have been many many times when I was the only person of color “on the campaign bus” “at the press conference” “ at the table” “on the sunday show” and all that entails.

Moreover some of these issues permeate the public media system – yes stations AND yes your favorite podcast companies that have sprung from that system. While the media reporting on this has been to treat each as a problem in isolation that is not the case.
