Joshua Harris, I Want My Teens Back<\/a>, on Life After I Kissed Dating Goodbye\u2014\u201cAt 24, many of my peers and I were figuring out things that we should\u2019ve learned at 16, like how to bring up conflict in a relationship, how to communicate to someone that you care about them, and simply how to (non-creepily) ask someone on a date.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Vision for Black Lives: Policy Demands for Black Power, Freedom & Justice<\/a>\u2014\u201cIn response to the sustained and increasingly visible violence against Black communities in the U.S. and globally, a collective of more than 50 organizations representing thousands of Black people from across the country have come together with renewed energy and purpose to articulate a common vision and agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Research Is Clear: Electing More Women Changes how Government Works<\/a>, on Vox\u2014\u201cAnd, to put it bluntly, they just get more shit done: A woman legislator, on average, passed twice as many bills as a male legislator in one recent session of Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019m Pro-Life. And I\u2019m Voting for Hillary. Here\u2019s Why.<\/a> on Shannon Dingle\u2014\u201cAs the mother of children with disabilities, I can\u2019t look them in the eye, say I value them deeply, and then justify a vote for Trump. I can\u2019t say I\u2019m pro-life and say I\u2019m with him. I can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

Why the President Needs a Council of Historians<\/a>, on The Atlantic\u2014\u201d\u00a0\u2026\u00a0the American diplomat Dennis Ross recently noted that \u201calmost no administration\u2019s leading figures know the history of what we have done in the Middle East.\u201d Neither do they know the history of the region itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
