"...We have to ride these people hard or nothing is going to change." Amen, Chris.

This is maybe one of the most important things I have learned about civic participation in this whole mess of 2020, Etc. You can't elect people and feel relieved and forget about them. You can't elect people and feel despair and think "well, we'll just have to see." I mean, you CAN do those things, but they're so much a part of why we're in such a mess right now. You elect people you think you can push to do the right thing, and then you push them.

When I stop to think about things I'm grateful for, top of the list is not only this understanding, but the community that's pushed ME into learning it.

Lovely interview - thank you! I read Chris' One Sentence Journal in a single evening at my parent's house after discovering it at Fact and Fiction. Would recommend it wholeheartedly to Culture Study readers and as a present for lovers of nature, poetry, and true Montana.
