HOPE

An immigrant from Algeria approached me outside my truck this morning, smiled broadly at me, telling me, with a hand over his heart, that my messages painted on my truck gives him hope. We then got to talk

Come ON White Peeps! We Have This!!!

I’ve been doing anti-racism work for a very long time. My journey to becoming committed to anti-racism work began in 1968 with the murder of Martin Luther King Jr. I was a senior in high school, feature co-editor of our school paper, thinking there were two Black students in the entire school, when banging on the office door

Envisioning

I’m envisioning the new message I intend to paint on the back of my RRB, as soon as I get the funds together to replace 4 of the back door panels. I repaint the back only and often, reflecting the current state of our union. I hate painting over Kamala and my welcome messages in many languages but specifically to Haitian refugees, to counter tRump’s racist

HANDS OFF!!!

MILLIONS took to the streets today to begin and continue taking back our democracy & government with the promise of returning & staying out in the streets until WE WIN! There were hundreds of thousands of people in

Centering Womyn…A Dialogue!

The voices of womyn are finafuckinly becoming ‘stronger’…i.e. more womyn are refusing to be silenced and are speaking up.

blessed veggie oil and veggie oil fellow!

I’m so very fortunate to have found a wonderful veggie oil guy in Arizona who will fill up my 300 gallon tank this morning so I will not have to run to my treasured home base, Berkeley, on diesel. I’ve just made it to Arizona with maybe 5 gallons of veg oil left to spare. In addition to being a veg oil guy, he’s not the typical white guy

Arizona Sunset at 60 MPH

I can’t help it and I’ll probably kill myself one day trying to capture the most amazing sunsets while driving….not such a great idea but I do it. I should pull over somewhere, get out and take the pics. But I’m on a mission tonite, a veg oil mission and a get to California mission. I want to go to my home base, pick up the donations

The beginning Arizona sunset

I often take pics out my cab window, wanting to capture the beauty I see but also being on a schedule, not having time to pull over and stop somewhere to focus on taking that picture. So this is the sky I saw going almost 60 mph today

Winter Sunrise New Mexico

Good bye Texas

I was able to start driving earlier this morning, as the temperature was over 40 by 9a.m. Still no deep interactions with anyone, although I am moving pretty quickly. I want to make it to the Bay to get my truck smogged in time to leave California and be back in Atlanta by the 4th of January. Then I’m hoping
