Pictured above is the former native pant mural, which was power-washed by Takoma Park City Govt at the climax of a community debate about "graffiti." 


Here's the DCist story that sparked a bunch of other coverage, like this Channel 4 piece. Now, young people in Takoma Park are carrying the issue forward.

    The best breaks for your work day

    Susan loves arm extensions as a quick, physical break. Here, she teaches an easy, medium and difficult variation to bring more blood to your brain and body for days when you are sitting too much (which is to say, most days).

    SELF-PRESERVATION

    “Caring for myself is 

    not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, 

    and that is  an act of political warfare.” 

    — Audre Lorde 

    from her 1988 essay collection, A Burst of Light
