"Hugs meant a lot, even to complete strangers." That's what the Freedom Fliers did -- but, as Debra says, we're not strangers. I hope we can somehow get back to that. @911memorial #hug #love @OrHist #NYC #oregon #friends #compassion #AmericanHistory #authorlife #readmorebooks
#NYer turned #oregonian #LenBergstein was instrumental to my understanding #FlightforFreedom. Kind. Knew media. His #values & #integrity helped maintain the trip's purity. Huge loss. #love #oregon #NYC @nytimes @RonWyden @nyulaw #inspire #albina #portland @wesleyan_u @NYUAlumni

The last day of #FlightforFreedom. A day of fun and love. Deep, deep #connection. Purely selfless. The best of humanity that's in us all. And from me, the author, a virtual #hug for all of you as we walk the path of life together. #writers #inspiring #love #reading #oregon #nyc
The U.S. bombed Afghanistan on Oct. 10, 2001. Would terrorists want revenge? NYC was a likely target, but Freedom Fliers kept their schedule. Flight for Freedom was about love & showing the nation not to live in fear. The Freedom Fliers faced the challenge & proved they meant it.
Oct. 6, 2001. Flight for Freedom begins. Courageous #oregonians get on #planes for one reason: because they #cared about fellow #Americans, people they didn't know. "Our brothers and sisters." #oregon #NYC #neverforget #Sept11 @OrHist @911memorial #inspiring #authors #writerslife
Let #HurricaneIan victims know we #care. When #Oregonians went to #nyc after #september11, the most important thing to #NYers was #beingthere for them. #giving #love #florida #nyc #humanity #inspirational #compassion #Reading #YouAreNotAlone @911memorial #Oregon #hugs #leanonme
We had a moment after 9/11 when we were unified. We don't have to agree about everything, we don't have to look the same, worship the same. We're better together. @AuthorVhelena @911memorial @OrHist #sept11 #neverforget911 #cometogether #Oregon #nyc @FDNY @FDNYFoundation #reading
As we anticipate rest & #nature prepares for winter, 21 yrs ago in #Portland, #Oregon, a light of #courage & #humanity burst into the world: we can face fear with #compassion & #love. Two weeks later, 1,000 people did just that, giving of themselves to grieving #NYC. #September11
That was the spirit of the #FlightforFreedom. Yes, #America was like that once. #oregonlovesnewyork #nyc #oregon #goodreads #PeaceNotWar @tothemax2050 #love #read #books #cometogether @911memorial @OrHist @GPJOChamber

Reminds me of the time I was going to explain to my students who General Leclerc was, but thought to ask first if they knew who Charles de Gaulle was. After a brief pause, one of them said "Isn't he the airport dude?" 😅
Today, when introducing WWI, a student raised her hand and brought up the death of a certain archduke. Nobody knew his name, so as a hint, I offered that he shares his name with a band. Gentle reader, my students asked if there had perhaps been an Archduke Metallica.

Interesting "Reading is a moral & subversive act in its own right. It’s a disengagement from the commercial & competitive in pursuit of heightened moral sense coupled with aesthetic & intellectual engagement." #books #literature @PhineasJFR @ruecky_haha themillions.com/2017/08/__tras…
#FridayReads Still reading #WarAndPeace. (Well, it is long.) But it is also very readable (A Briggs translation). Everyone should read it. It will enrich your life & even more your understanding of life. What more can a book do? #Tolstoy #books #literature

a lot of friends are writing to us with words of support. it’s really important for us, that international community does understand how it's difficult to fight for changes in authoritarian regimes (now maybe in a dictatorship?). thank you for your support 💚 #StandWithUkriane
Sounds very interesting. Probably we need more #novels about #ClimateChange since so many seem so unwilling to face the unavoidable truths told in #nonfiction #books about this crisis.
It’s an absolute dream come true to have ELEUTHERIA enthusiastically reviewed in @latimes 🌱 I’m grateful for this careful read and for these insights about the novel!
