When I opened my inbox and saw the tagline for the email, I immediately began singing Hamilton lyrics. Thanks for sharing Coates' new book! The Water Dancer changed my life and is one of my favorite books.

Hamilton is definitely still on rotation in my house 😉

I also flew to Houston to be in this room last Monday! Now I’m retroactively giddy to know that another writer/speaker/human voice I admire was in that room—you.

Such a great experience - I would have loved to have heard them talk. We saw Ta-Nahesi last spring in Seattle and was so moved by the interview. I recently finished reading The Message and it knocked me over. I will be purchasing the book now as I will need to read it over and over. I am grateful for his wisdom. And yours.

Yes! You were in the room! I love that! This is why I show up for marches/protests/talks - so we can look back in years/decades to come and know that We Were There. Love this. Thank you.
