- Bio
- History teacher, red-diaper baby, former Marine, a walking oxymoron.
Yekdeli means "one heart" in Persian... it describes those of us my husband says weep for the whole world. We have "one heart" with humanity.

--The monument in the profile photo is in Forest Park, IL and marks the grave of 8 labor activists, some of whom were convicted and hanged for their part in the Haymarket Riot. Those convicted were executed on November 11, 1887--
Long live labor...may we never forget...
