Peter, it is almost intellectually overwhelming just to keep track of all the damage and evil being perpetrated by the monster in the White House. I've participated in one of 50501 protests and might venture over to the local No Kings protest. But while it feels good to join like-minded people, it seems ineffectual. I don't feel our Congressional reps are doing enough.
It’s very difficult to know what to do. And it’s very difficult to know what is effective. And burning oneself out does not help. I went to the first big protest, and plan to go to the No Kings protest (where I may have a small role in helping things go smoothly) and I attended a meeting focusing on rights of people threatened by ICE and the sudden, disorienting changes in immigration and refugee and legal status poliicies. (very cruel and intentionally cruel policies, of course, because Trump enjoys cruelty) — and I try to follow things and write this every week. I wish I could do more but it’s very important to eat right, keep one’s emotional health, and not abandon the rest of one’s life at a time like this.

When life gets challenging do not forget to spend time and relax with some good music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIhAFooV9Oc
