BOOK LAUNCH! I was 21 when I found out I had brain cancer because a radiologist never returned a call. Thirty years later, I wrote this about why every patient needs a second opinion. www.matthewzachary.com/blog/its-tim...

Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.  Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.

Today when elected leaders of a nation express eliminating a civilization, I wonder what would have happened if those of us inside - praying for peace or wishing we were on the flight to the moon - came outside to demand this madness stop immediately. A future suspends in the balance. #ForPeace

Grateful for Ms. A Washington's insights here, on the way shadow banning actively contricts our view, blinding us to the rich intellectual and social writings which we really do want to see and hear... A must read: medium.com/@Ms.AWashing... #equity #censorship #socialmedia #writing #gratitude

“Silenced in Plain Sight — The Washington Spectrum.” It comes directly from what I’ve been witnessing here: voices growing, engagement collapsing,communities disappearing from our own feeds. This paper names the pattern — and the infrastructure behind it. #Read #Resist medium.com/@Ms.AWashing...
