THE FUTURE FOR AFGHAN WOMEN
Last month, I had the privilege of discussing the future for Afghan women with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during the annual meeting of the US Afghan Women's Council (of which she is Honorary Co-Chair). I appreciate her continued support for Afghan women's rights, especially as the US continues to peddle the narrative that the Taliban understand that diplom Read more of this blog post »

I rarely read books like this and when I do it's always by accident. I see the book recommended but don't bother to read the synopsis. I was sucked in for a proper spooking. Hashtag page turner, as they say. ...more |

| A real odyssey! The story circumnavigates time and place and norms with some exquisite lines that I wanted to highlight if I had a hard copy. The audio narration was very good. Glad to have met the author when we presented at the Pasadena Women's Lit ...more | |

“This life is difficult. We lose fathers, brothers, mothers, songbirds and pieces of ourselves. Whips strike the innocent, honors go to the guilty, and there is too much loneliness. I would be a fool to pray for my children to escape all of that. Ask for too much and it might actually turn out worse. But I can pray for small things, like fertile fields, a mother’s love, a child’s smile—a life that’s less bitter than sweet.”

“The small woman
Builds cages for everyone
She
Knows.
While the sage,
Who has to duck her head
When the moon is low,
Keeps dropping keys all night long
For the
Beautiful
Rowdy
Prisoners
