Elissa, Thank you for this heartfelt piece about how to approach Juneteenth as a white woman of privilege. Your weaving the concept of deception into today's political landscape is helpful to my personal struggle about how to properly honor this holiday.

I love Poor Man's Feast! Subscribing today. Thanks and Blessings, Dory

Thank you for this clear and important message, so very appropriate today. One can only think that deceptive thinking is contagious. You are speaking about law. But also, "group" formulated opinions (as in social media) are so very harmful. Your writing is an excellent example of an individual willing to think and express outside the box of expectations. Important to learn from history. Thank you.
