We have lost Jesse Jackson. I briefly knew him. This is about him spending his time with me, when I was a child. It's personal, adorable, and most of all, humane. I have adored him ever since that day. https://emptywheel.net/morality-is-a-long-game/

@quinn Damn you. I'm in a cafe and trying not to cry.

Seriously, thank you for that.

@dnkboston thank you, there's no higher compliment for a writer than making people cry. :)
@quinn What a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing that. I have promptly sent it off to my queer child who used to talk to strangers on airplanes.
@quinn @Taco_lad I’m crying. So many layers to this. A beautiful reflection.
@quinn Thank you so much for sharing!
