Racism
California may have created a template for a conversation about reparations, which we are bound to have. Repeat — may have. It is part of the “racial reckoning” ignited by the murder of ex-con George Floyd we are now experiencing. The idea of somehow “making whole” African-Americans who experienced loss because
Abortion
Don’t panic ladies -- abortion is still legal, depending on where you live (and assuming only women can get pregnant). Despite the U.S. Supreme Court reversing Roe v, Wade, no woman will be more than two states away from a state that permits -- some actually encourage --
