Despite the 'dark times'
Reimagine what is possible
Our Time is Now.
"We believe that in the wealthiest city in the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, working people deserve a dignified life." Zohran Mamdani, NY

" To Future Generations
We surely live in dark times.
I came to the cities at a time of disorder
When hunger reigned there.
I came among the people at a time of upheaval
And I rose up in revolt with them..." B.B. >>

Many thanks to the Global Policy Forum, a student club at Westlake High, for inviting me to speak on civic engagement. I was VERY encouraged to hear so many informed and relevant questions on topics critical to our daily lives – including climate realities, wildlife and open-space protection, fire prevention, and infrastructure maintenance, among others. Thanks especially to club president Rishi Sikh for putting together today’s session.

Thanks to the Southeast Ventura County YMCA Youth and Government program for the invitation to speak on civic engagement. The kids asked great questions and seemed very interested in getting more involved in their local governments. I encouraged them to get involved in the issues they care about – in other words, to come give us politicians a hard time. :-)
Did you know 16-year-olds in California can pre-register, so they'll be able to vote on their 18th birthday? Even better, they can register online at https://registertovote.ca.gov/
