Some Good News and a Little Ansiedad

As most of you have probably already figured out, I read the evil, failing, fake, etc. New York Times and Washington Post on an almost daily basis, and in the past day or so there has been some good news for the Latino community and everyone else who cares about social justice.  For one thing, the pardoning of Arpaio DIDN'T happen when 45 visited Phoenix the other night!  Also, a Texas judge has ruled against voter suppression legislation in that state and ruled that a comprehensive and fair measure be passed to completely replace what's currently on the books.  There is also a heartening article in the NYT today (8/25) about the resilience of the Spanish language and Spanglish in Latino communities despite the fact that few members of the younger generation are fully fluent.

 However, in spite of these good developments or perhaps because of them, I have a sneaking feeling that 45 is about to stir the "identity politics" pot again by doing something hateful to our people--probably eliminating the DACA program or perhaps...pardoning Arpaio!    Keep strong and

                          safe in the coming storms--both political and meteorological--everyone!
