I hope to have my article out soon in a scientific journal outlining my proposed 4-step plan to begin countering rising antivaccine activism in America. The reason for my article is more than academic - but rather a genuine threat to public health in the U.S. highlighted here

Nancy Wake, known as the "White Mouse," was a WWII heroine who joined the French Resistance and later the SOE. She was one of the Gestapo's most wanted, parachuted into France, led 7,000 Maquis fighters, killed an SS guard with her bare hands, and was awarded multiple honours.

Joy Lofthouse, enlisted in the Air Transport Auxiliary in 1943, flew Spitfires and bombers, becoming one of the 168 female pilots, dubbed "Attagirls," who delivered aircraft during WWII. She contributed significantly to the war effort by ensuring planes reached their destinations for combat and training purposes. She was also one of the very first female pilots to fly a Spitfire during WWII. Joy Lofthouse, 1923 - 2017. 🌹

I assume that all the "Government should be fully transparent" Republicans all want the House Ethics Committee to Release their probe into Matt Gaetz for the Senate to use during his confirmation hearing. All in favor say aye!

I was very pleased to hear this past week that the magazine, Canadian Geographic, would like to use one of my photos on a special page called, “In a Snap”, in the upcoming issue of Canadian Geographic. I am quite humbled and honoured to be featured in a national magazine!

Sigh. So much misinfo again today. No one is trying to count votes from unregistered people. This is categorically false. What’s actually happening is the GOP is trying to throw out timely cast votes from registered voters. Again. triblive.com/news/pennsylvan…

Most Jews deported by the German Nazis to Auschwitz for extermination were promised resettlement & new life. They packed their suitcases with all the essential items. Hope was used as a weapon. The suitcases we preserve and display at the Memorial are important documents as they carry the names of their owners. (video: instagram.com/rokkimuija_ )

The late Coretta Scott King. She was an author, activist, civil rights leader and the wife of Martin Luther King Jr. She wasn’t just the wife of an American hero, she was an icon in her own right. A THREAD!
