It’s 2020. A journalist is heartbroken because her hippie mom doesn’t trust the #COVID19 vaccine, the info put out by the @CDCgov or the media. She asks her mom to record their phone conversations in which they try to understand each other’s sides. Outstanding work, @wingsofapig!
"The Wedge," a new podcast from @spaceship_media and CPR, starts today! Listen now to hear the first chapter of a powerful and courageous story about family, trustworthy information and Covid-19. Apple: buff.ly/3hpPTGi Spotify: buff.ly/3A60so8

Next time someone tries to tell you the coronavirus only affects older, “weaker” people, please direct them Shaimeek Frazier’s obituary. The photo they used is her graduation photo...from 2019. She was 21, a baby. On her way to nursing school.
Replying to @THECITYNY
116/ Shaimeek Raijeen Frazier went by many names: ShyShee, ShyShy, FlyShy or just Shy. A “fashionista,” according to her mother, Shamika Kearney, Frazier was a “go-getter” who was preparing to attend nursing school. Read more: buff.ly/2JWcnh9

The event was designed to help create avenues of connection and community to those suffering in isolation from the devastation of the coronavirus. I am very proud of my co-workers @allieginwala & @wingsofapig for taking the lead on planning this. Please join us! 🙏

This thread feels very important right now. For sanity. For moving forward. For the reckoning I personally need to do with 70 million Americans.
