We are keenly aware of the many many difficulties a lot of us are facing right now. Between COVID, extreme weather situations, caring for our communities in distress and ourselves, there is a lot of pain in this community right now. We want to acknowledge that and are thinking about ways to make space for that. One of the most acute situations happening in real time is the US withdrawal from Afghanistan. We know a handful of Fellows have some connection to this place and we’d like to offer to set up a time for whoever is interested to get on a zoom call on Thursday, September 2 at 10am and talk for a bit. Let us know if you would like to join. We will be back in September with other ways to connect.
