Dear John,
How are you doing?
The rain over the weekend was so calming, but I’m grateful for the sun in Saint Paul today. With warmer weather and Minnesota’s adjustment of the stay at home order, people are sure to be out more.
Check out this helpful infographic about how to choose low risk activities, and remember to wear a mask and wash your hands if you’re out in community.

In the Moment
We may be reopening but COVID-19 still poses a deadly threat to our communities.
Nearly 90,000 Americans have died from this disease. Every single one of these people has a name, a family, and a community who is mourning their loss. From 3:00 p.m. today until 3:00 p.m. tomorrow, the #NamingtheLost vigil will commemorate people who have died of COVID-19. All are welcome to join in.

A couple hours ago, we posted our new episode of Igniting Change on Instagram TV. The topic is dominant narrative, and I hope you’ll tune in! (Spoiler alert: I led this episode.)

Nurses are on the frontlines of our communities, caring for us and our loved ones. But they still don’t have the personal protective equipment they need to stay safe. Grab your mask and join the socially-distant #ProtectNurses march to the Capitol from United Hospital in St. Paul tonight starting at 6:00 p.m.

My immensely talented coworker Imogen writes recipes! Check out her muffin recipe. It’s super versatile. Enjoy them while reading Minnesota Youth Collective’s Quaranzine, a resource of connection and love to reference as we’re physically apart.
