Thanks @Nikwalkotter & Matthew Batt for better connecting us and for including me in the HOW WE ARE project. And for letting me air my grievances with Molina Healthcare, the deadbeat dad of health insurance. howweare.org/post/jason-tha…

Another beautiful essay from @Nikwalkotter and Matthew Batt 's "How Are We" series. This one is from W. Todd Kaneko and deals with COVID and COVID-related racism + racism in terms of our burning world today. A beautiful read by an amazing writer and person. howweare.org/post/w-todd-ka…
