We’ll be easing off our usual publication schedule until Monday.

My next regular column will appear on Monday, November 27. I’m going to use the next few days to consolidate some research for future stories, clean out my files, and enjoy the holiday, while trying to ignore the tantrums of the Tweeter-in-Chief..

The weekly Activist Calendar (sans the usual sermon,) will be published on Friday. If anything major breaks, I’ll jump into writing mode.

I am grateful for all the efforts by SDFP’s editors, our contributors, and especially our loyal readers. Have a restful weekend. Take time to appreciate what is good in your life.


Looking for some action? Check out the Weekly Progressive Calendar, published every Friday in this space, featuring Demonstrations, Rallies, Teach-ins, Meet Ups and other opportunities to get your activism on.
