We ran an excellent race and crossed the line with over 10,000 voters cheering us on.
Hello Blog Friends, It has been too long since I have had a moment to post anything to Growl 4 Justice. My life got crazy after I filed to run for State Delegate in my district in Maryland. I have NEVER run for political office before. But I have worked in State government and Annapolis…
Hello Survivor, I see you crouching in the cavity of darkness. I hear your sobs and see your tears. I know you are there. AND I believe you! Many years ago, I lived that darkness. I doubted myself. I doubted my memories. I was afraid. I thought I’d be a terrible advocate. I didn’t have…

It’s about to snow here in Raleigh, which means two things: there are no pantry staples in the stores, and there is 100% chance of no school tomorrow. So I’d like to take this moment to talk about the white stuff. No, not the snow. By “white stuff” I mean…
Dear Pink Sisters, When you hear the words, “I have a dream” do you break into an Abba song or do you hear the incredible call from THE Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to join our sisters of color to secure guaranteed unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for everyone?…
Mr. Andy Savage, You and your church appear to need help writing an appropriate sexual assault perpetrator response. Your infuriating attempt to avoid responsibility perpetuates rape culture and fails at bringing about the healing you claim you want for your victim. If you are truly sorry for your sins and really want to make a confession to your church, please…
Warning: Not a happy people post Yesterday, I reposted Crying in the New Year because last year’s election, grief, illness, the cold, gray skies and holidays made 2017 a really tough year for people I love and who love them. Actually I should post it every year because for many of us, holidays are painful. Yet every…

Today is another eve of my sanity. In just a few hours, men and women in Alabama will leave their homes to vote for a new senator. The news and my husband are trying to prepare me for another predicted fall of our Country’s morality under the veil of “religious liberty”. Religious liberty doesn’t mean…
Almost every day there is a new disgusting sexual harassment or assault allegation about someone in Hollywood or running for office. Each new #MeToo testimony is a Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder PTSD trigger to my own experiences. I don’t enjoy these mild to chair holding panic attacks but I am grateful for every brave women with the courage…
I’m looking for the magic bullet that was the last bullet of American carnage. We need to stop the bloodshed of our fellow Americans. The families and friends of over 640 victims killed by legally purchased guns wish the magic bullet was found before they lost their loved one to gun violence. America wake up! We…
Some neighbors are lovable and others are not so huggable. No one likes the nosey neighbor who is always spreading gossip or criticizing us, our house or children. The creepy neighbor who seems to always pop out of the bushes is scary. And no one likes the infuriating neighbor who always lets and leaves their…
