Bellevue College president David May: “This rededication is more than a rededication of a piece of art. It represents, for me, a rededication of the college to the values that we seek to live by.” It’s community conversation and dialogue seeking to create a discourse to confront the pale suppressing hand of white supremacy. Congratulations to the college, the community and the artist, Erin Shigaki.

I remember 40 years ago today, when I was in second grade, passing the post office and asking my mom why the flags were lowered.

She explained the #Challenger tragedy.

We know why it happened - and nasa instituted many changes intended to improve our safety profile. The entire agency trains on that this day every year.

A few years later, I personally benefitted from the nasa program in memory of teacher Christa McAuliffe.

My 5th grade science teacher built us a dream science lab. It was a real inspiration for me.
Some kid in flyover country.

One day, a reporter from the local paper even stopped by, and I attach that front page below. You can guess which one is me.

On this day, it's critical that acknowledge that we've seen before what's now happening.

In the 1930ies the world leaders could have stopped Fascism & the Holocaust, but did not.

Let's not dishonor this day by repeating the same mistakes #DayofRemembrance
