A happy memory: 2013 when #HarryBelafonte , Joan Baez and my dad were honored by the War Resisters League. Belafonte quoted King who was accused of “preaching to the choir.” “If I stop preaching to the choir they might stop singing.” He told the activists: “Keep singing.”

Käthe Kollwitz, one of Dorothy Day’s favorite artists. My reflections in @GiveUsThisDayLP “One day a new idea will arise and there will be an end to all wars. I am convinced of this.”

@JerryBrownGov came to visit my dad @DanielEllsberg for amazing conversation about the nuclear threat, climate emergency, the dangers of the Ukraine war and the deep question, What is to be done?

“You’d be surprised by the people I know—even people I love dearly—who would mistake a poppyseed bagel for sesame seed.”

Henri Nouwen's "Ukraine Diary" just published @OrbisBooks. In the intro I describe the background: how 30 yrs ago I rejected this account of his 1993-94 travels in Ukraine, only now to realize its meaning. It was, in effect, a message that was meant for the future, for now.

Brilliant interview with my dad and @mitchellreports on @MSNBC. His message and "legacy" could not be more relevant. As he says, "I feel as if I am stepping out exactly where I came in," trying to warn vs the use of nuclear weapons in a stalemated war. on.msnbc.com/41q2k7a
