Yesterday I clicked a Resistbot thing.

Today I set up a small monthly donation to the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. I got Kit The Big Day by Terry Lee Caruthers and Robert Casilla, a picture book about the first Black woman to cast a vote in Tennessee, and it really moved me, so I wanted to support an organization that's helping Black women vote today. The Committee is one of the foremost groups working to restore and protect voting rights across the country. I've been a fan of theirs for a long time and was very pleased to see that Biden tapped Kristen Clarke, their president and executive director, to lead the DOJ's civil rights division. They seemed like a good choice.

Maybe this weekend Kit and I will write postcards.
