My parents came to this country some thirty odd years ago to build a better life. So I could be free. To think and write and speak and dream and DO. To be the change. Today, they got to cast their very first vote for President for @KamalaHarris ! Pls vote!!! 💙🥹🇺🇸@KamalaHQ

Thanks for the kind words! Check out FINALLY HEARD if you’re looking for a book that shows your kiddos the perils of social media, and the benefits of REAL life! ❤️
I have been doing a lot of reading and thinking about social media this summer. @kellyyanghk does a beautiful job of capturing both the beauty and the danger of social media for both youth and adults!
