    Thanks for being part of the conversation I am the Poet In The Forest. A children series I penned out in the 1990s. None of it would be possible if it wasn’t for this forest in South Charlotte, NC. I talk about it so much that I thought maybe it’s time you get to meet all that inspires me.

  • An Erin Brockovich Of Our Time Counting Backwards From Author Jacqueline Friedland

    An Erin Brockovich Of Our Time Counting Backwards From Author Jacqueline Friedland
    Apr 3 2025
    It’s 1927 and young, destitute woman in Virginia named Carrie Buck stands at the center of an extraordinary legal battle at the forefront of the American eugenics conversation. (an aside/fact: by the 1920s, eugenics had become a global movement). Uneducated and without any support, she spends her youth dreaming about a different future--one separate from her exploitative foster family--unknowing of the ripples her small, country life will have on an entire nation. Flash forward to 2022. Jessa must make a decision: risk her legal career and relationships by leading the charge on an ambitious class action lawsuit or remain silent. She wants to have it all-- the job title of her dreams, a loving marriage with her husband, Vance, and, above all else, a baby. But when her painstaking efforts to conceive fall flat, she struggles to find larger meaning in her life. The decision she makes next threatens to change everything. Faced with the opportunity to take on a pro bono case at a nearby ICE detention center, Jessa decides to pick up the thread of her family’s long history of activism by representing detainee Isobel Pérez, hoping to help her secure citizenship and ultimately reunite her with her young daughter. However, what first appears to be a routine immigration case quickly reveals itself as something far more sinister.

    The Daily Mess Is It Manmade Or God Made Plus Why Are There So Many Dorito Flavors
    Apr 3 2025
    I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Is today’s world manmade or God created? Plus…why are there so many selections of Doritos? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate. I call it The Daily Mess. A chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes, it’s my morning writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later. When a subject arrives, I dig in. It’s still keeping a journal! By doing the research the picture becomes clearer. This is the Daily Mess…

  • 30 Years Ago The Oklahoma City Bombing Changed The Nation Ceri Isfryn From National Geographics

    30 Years Ago The Oklahoma City Bombing Changed The Nation Ceri Isfryn From National Geographics
    Apr 3 2025
    On April 19, 1995, the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history devastated the nation, claiming 168 lives—including 19 children—and injuring hundreds more. The bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building shattered families and changed America forever. Now, 30 years later, National Geographic has unveiled the trailer and key art for its new three-part docuseries, OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING: ONE DAY IN AMERICA, a raw and unflinching account of that tragic day, told by those who lived through it.

    OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING: ONE DAY IN AMERICA features a rare archive and powerful first-hand testimony from witnesses—some sharing their stories for the first time. Former President Bill Clinton and former Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating reflect on leading a nation in mourning, while survivor Amy Downs relives the harrowing experience of being trapped in the rubble for hours. Edye Raines recalls the frantic search for her two missing children, and first responders, including district fire chief Mike Shannon, recall the desperate fight to save lives. FBI Special Agent in Charge Bob Ricks describes the race against time to find the bomber and bring him to justice. The series provides an intimate yet sweeping portrait of survival, courage and the pursuit of justice in the face of an unthinkable tragedy.
