Had a great time this week talking infrastructures of abolition at Franklin & Marshall, which looks like a college should look. Also, a cool coffee joint and paying-of-respect to the under-appreciated badass Thaddeus Stevens.
Hey, if you're feeling like life has passed you by and you're too old to start something new, remember that John Brown was 55 before he killed his first pro-slavery settler in the Kansas Territory. It's never too late to follow your dreams.
