I was reminded this week that the same sun and the same moon rise and set equally for all of us. Your privilege is your vantage point, but that moves as you move. We don’t all have to like one another, but we do all have to respect one another and the space each of […]
When I was very young (OK…younger), I traveled a bit between Lima, my hometown in Peru, and Miami, the tropical gateway to everything USA for someone like me. It was during one of those early trips that I picked up an issue of Teen People in which the Donna Karan fashions Gwyneth Paltrow wore in […]
It’s fall. Keep at it: WTP.

Today was A Day Without Immigrants in San Francisco. Now, I am not 100 percent sure that it was, indeed, a day without immigrants ’round these parts because most immigrants have to work in this expensive city and all around the Bay Area. At the very least, I am certain that it was a day […]
Madame X is coming soon. Madonna is due to kick off her 11th concert tour, an all-theatre trek, next week, on Sept. 17 in New York City, before hitting Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles (LA❌!), Boston, Philadelphia, Miami Beach, pausing for the holidays, then resuming in the new year in Lisbon, before taking residency in […]
