  • Midnight’s Children…

    Right now, I’m thinking about the book Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie. In the story, 1001 children were born, possessing magical powers from the stroke of midnight and for one hour afterwards on the night of India’s independence from Britain. Saleem and Shiva were born on the stroke of midnight, and were the most powerful… Read more

  • Homelessness: A Global Issue, and It’s Complicated

    Let’s face it—when we pass someone experiencing homelessness, most of us do that awkward look, feel a bit bad, and then pretend to check our phones. We’ve all done it.
