wrote about my last week with #PaulFarmer in Rwanda. Like many of us I didn’t know him so well but felt close to him because of the values of justice, health equity, humility and love that was his life. They were on full display the last week of his life.

100 medics killed in two weeks in Lebanon. Unacceptable violation of rules of war and targeting of health workers again and again by the state of Israel.

such a great and powerful article! I heard part of these stories from June herself at the end of her life but not in this detail. The punishment of academic voices speaking about Palestine is not new. June paid for that solidarity as do many today. Grateful for this piece.

via @NYTimes. I met him once a few years back. Very understated. Not wanting your name on every building you donate to. Imagine that. Definitely more philanthropists should follow his example.

Listening to Michael J fox and Hilary Clinton speak. He said Parkinson’s is a “gift that keeps on taking.” Amazing how many people with illness frame their journey like that. They don’t want their illness but it has shaped who they are. #CGI2023.
