Love the photo of the white cat against the blue-black depths, like a ghost of hope in these dark times. And the message of courage to raise our voices especially in the most silencing of situations.

I have Navalny's book on my list and I think it's important to read it. This is SUCH a hard, weird, time we are in politically and I agree that we need each other and will need each other moving forward. Writing helps us express our fears, feelings, and and the parts of our fragile selves we can't seem to verbally explain. We need to take the hand away from our own mouths. Loved the photo as well! Perfect.

Agreed. His book takes us deep into the Russia he grew up in--so many things I didn't know. It's inspiring to read especially now. Thanks re: the photo. Trying to find artistic ways to express things without words as well!

I love seeing photos writers post on here and do think it enhances the experience. I'm going to get right to that book. Thanks Linda.
