The #debate moderator should be able to mute the microphones when the candidates can’t control themselves.

I wrote this book for this moment, for this moment to become a movement, for the movement to transform us as we transform this country. Thank you to the folks reading recommending #HowToBeAnAntiracist. Use it as springboard into antiracist action. Justice needs you, all of you.

If you deal with people (so everyone pretty much) this is a great listen.
Thanks for having me on, @rubyrogues! Always a pleasure to talk about valuing introverts' contributions, being an effective moderator, and building broad participation in meetings no matter your group's size. Also, 'Brainstorm Introverts' is cracking me up! #prepositionsmatter
