My wife & I met during another era of protests. Our lives together have taken many twists & turns since but one lesson we’ve learned, which keeps getting reinforced, is that politics are unavoidable. And for that reason, the only real option is to engage.

What we experienced near the White House was a very clear reminder of what’s at stake.
