Saturday Link Love is a feature where I collect and post links to various articles I’ve come upon over the past week. Feel free to share any interesting articles you’ve come along as well! The more the merrier.

Love-struck hero or creepy harasser? Suddenly we’re seeing our favorite rom-coms in a new light, on Washington Post—“The Donna Problem is that the rest of ‘The West Wing,’ which ended its run in 2006, is still a really good show.

The Children’s #NeverAgain Movement, on Medium—“Children across this country are letting adults know — with great passion, courage, savvy, and strength — that we are failing them. Their voices are raw and yet astute, unpolished and yet articulate, strong and yet innocent.”
