While POTUS was cutting IMLS, he was also dismantling Voice of America and Radio Martí. My career as a #longtimefed started at VOA. I later spent a few years at Radio Martí, where I met my husband and my best friend.

These agencies were not without problems, but they didn‘t deserve to be one more tradition thrown on the scrap heap of history. Meanwhile the “champion of Cuban freedom†does nothing.

"The knowledge of different literatures frees us from the tyranny of a few..." One of my favorite things in NYC are these beautifully sculpted sidewalk plaques along Library Way (41st&5th). Going to post some of my faves here. Here's a link for the full list: https://www.nypl.org/blog/2011/09/13/library-way
