[LONG THREAD 🧵👇] I want to tell you about my grocery store, the King Soopers in Table Mesa that is less than a mile from my home in #Boulder. I walk there. I bike there. I drive there. I shop there.
It may be part of a large grocery store chain, but it's very much a neighborhood store. My husband was just there on Friday for our weekly food run. I popped in on Saturday. Yesterday, I biked with my 5 y.o. to the bagel place in the same shopping center to pick up breakfast.
It is impossible to leave my neighborhood without passing this store. It’s right at the intersection of several residential areas. In pre-covid times, I’d go several times a week. During covid, I go weekly. It’s where I get essentials: food for the family, and Rx for me.

Thank you to @Junie4Boulder @rachelkfriend @marydoloyoung @AaronBrockett12 @bobyatesboulder & the rest of City Council for appointing me to #Boulder's Human Relations Commission last night. I'm grateful for the opportunity and look forward to working with my fellow commissioners.
In my application, I talked about my desire to work on racial equity issues. It was surreal/sobering to be watching council proceedings at the same time as I was reading news about the murders in Atlanta.
It's no secret that my biggest apprehension about moving back to Boulder was the lack of racial diversity. It's also no secret that the reason I started working on #DEI issues at my kids' school is b/c of a racist gesture made in front of my 1st grade son on the playground.

Some takeaways: "As we lose the #Arctic sea ice cover, Arctic riches become more exposed and easier to get at."
"Bering Strait heat flow is key to predicting the timing of seasonal sea ice retreat."
