Most of my days are spent thusly: I wake up and grab a cup of coffee, start rooting around the kitchen for breakfast, and then begin the ritual of taking out the carrying tray that I take up to my mother. Mornings are hard for her and I bring her food to her since it’s [...]
If I were a dog I would be running in a circle, chewing my own tail, and then looking around the room for a chew toy. This is just the way today is going. Scoring a tranquilizer or going on a kennel run should be high on my priority list. What does that make me? [...]

For example, when I read about the pool in Philadelphia which banned the minority (Black and Latino) kids from [...]
Dear Former Friend/Prayer Partner/Sunday School classmate: Would you really have done this had you put any thought into it? Honestly. You haven’t called or visited me in three years.
