A pause for the cause…
democratic vistas reborn

From the mouths of babes… and their teachers… we have come to know that Kamala, yes, that Kamala, attended Berkwood Hedge school in Berkeley as a kindergartner. Berkwood Hedge, Berkeley itself, Oakland, the East Bay at large, and all our progressive hearts were represented at the DNC on the 22nd.

Her imagination has been broadened by these tales. She has drawn circle designs side by side with a gifted teacher, our own resident visionary mystic philosopher-poet, WBIII. The humble work of a storyteller goes on, from sea to shining sea. 
We are inheritors of Whitman’s democratic vistas. In the photo below, that’s our Kamala, on the left, in Berkeley, a mere child… Look at her now!
