Congrats to you both!
If you're in Dallas County and were turned away, you have until 9 to find your precinct and vote. Judge ruled it.
And if you're still in line when the polls have closed, stay in line. You have a right to cast that ballot.

My 9 yr old and I are loving this one! 9 was especially excited to hear a familiar character's voice from Apt 4A :)
With ICE fascists escalating violence in Minnesota, again, see my article on 13 ways to protect yourself when protesting.
Easy but important action items. Be sure you and everyone you know who is protesting is following these rules: www.qasimrashid.com/p/13-rules-t...
No paywall. Share widely.
NEW: 400+ civil rights groups and unions just joined our demand that Congress refuse funds for ICE and rein in their behavior.
Masked federal agents are endangering our communities and putting lives at risk. Our leaders must act now and defend us from this lawless violence.
Congrats!!!
How exciting - congrats Lindsey!

Promotional graphic with an ombre background that transitions from dark purple to orange. The graphic contains a synopsis for “In the Country I Love” by Alaa Al-Barkawi, which reads in part: “Two Iraqi American best friends—a struggling teen father and the community’s golden boy—confront dark truths about their families in the wake of a devastating crime in this heartrending YA debut. As a seventeen-year-old single dad and a soon-to-be high school drop-out, Yassir Al-Azzawi’s lapsed Shia faith is just another thing convincing his parents he’s a failure. One more mistake, and they’ll send him back to their homeland, a war-torn Iraq. Khaled Al-Hakim is perfect on paper: devout in his faith, a straight-A student, and captain of the debate team. But beneath the surface, Khaled is no saint either, and his worst sin yet is ignoring his parents’ command to stay away from Yassir.”
Here’s your first look at IN THE COUNTRY I LOVE by Alaa Al-Barkawi, a heartrending debut about two Iraqi American best friends confront who dark truths about their families in the wake of a devastating crime. Forthcoming from Peachtree Teen on May 26th, 2026!
