    Heartbroken. Holding Paul’s family, , public health & global development community in the light. I know I am just one among countless others in how much I learned from his service, commitment, humanity & humility; generosity of knowledge & spirit; and always speaking truth.

    Paul taught all those around him the power of accompaniment, love for one another, and solidarity. Our deepest sympathies are with his wife Didi and three children.” 3/3

    Today marks the 60th anniversary of the U.S. embargo against Cuba: a policy that has failed for decades, all the while inflicting incalculable suffering on ordinary Cubans. Enough is enough. The Cold War is over. It’s time to change!

    Agreed. One of the single most powerful tools we have to address this level of egregious and deadly inequality is to tax the rich. We should be investing billions of dollars into our economy, our children and our planet, paving the way for a more equal and sustainable future.

    We cannot have a moral society when so few have so much, and so many have so little.
