A Promised Land

As a state attorney general, I had the blessed opportunity to be invited to both innaugurations of President Obama, twice to the White House Christmas parties, twice for policy meetings, and was honored to be the sole Republican elected official to be invited to the State Dinner for the Prime Minister of England. I learned so much from and gained so much respect for the values and policies of Presdent Obama that I left the GOP and was a proud and vocal supporter of the Biden-Harris ticket. This autobiography is an inspiring and educational history of public service.

Last night I started My Lord, What a Morning by Marian Anderson, one of the greatest contraltos of the 20th century and the first African American woman to perform at the Met.

She's the third opera singer I have read about who considered studying medicine. The others were Jessye Norman (whose parents could have helped pay for Med School, unlike Anderson's widowed mother) but she was offered a full scholarship to study music at Howard, and the Slovakian singer, Lucia Popp who started off studying medicine before she tried theatre and moved to voice.

[Annette]

I'm currently listening to The Marriage Pass. Chiiiiiile, these characters are a hot mess.
