…Speaking of mayhem, I hope you are now fully informed about the Proud Boys & will let them know that you do not approve of their antics. While you are at it, you can tell the Boogaloo Bois to stand down…. I’m sure you don’t want to win an election through voter intimidation. Do you?..
I am eager to hear your update on our CV testing strategy today. Maybe you heard about Dr. Ala Stanford (AS) on NPR. She heads the group, Black Doctors COVID-19 Consortium, which has been testing folks in the African American community in Philly…. Since April they’ve performed thousands of tests & her $$ award from the city will keep her team at this for a while.
…On your stop at the airport in Newport News today you will be very close to my mother’s house. The folks in Williamsburg would love for you to swing through to see the House of Burgess, which paved the way for democracy by housing the general assembly of elected officers from around the VA colony….
…I encourage you to head over to the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African American Arts during your visit to Charlotte. They aim to “close the cultural divide and to develop sustainable ways to promote diversity, inclusion and equity across the community” using art rather than violence to enable people to express themselves and be seen….
I wish you safe travels today & hope you avoid catching CV. It seems some folks are traveling again spreading CV from place to place. This weekend, motorcyclers are convening at Lake of the Ozarks. I hope it’s not another super-spreader event, like the Sturgis Rally, earlier this summer….
…Tommy Bartlett’s Show is closing after a 68-year run entertaining tourists on Lake Delton at the WI Dells. Everyone in the state is heart-broken, because even if they’ve never been to the show, they’ve seen the billboards on the highway…You might want to head down to see the Dells after your rally. You might also consider loaning Tom Diehl a few million dollars so he can keep the place open until Covid ends.
