    As a resident, I was very proud when Minnesota passed free school lunches for children. WINNESOTA

    Christian Cooper got his own birding show on NatGeo/Disney+.

    I was browsing Disney+ with my kids last night and realized that he had a show. I was so happy to see it though of course I couldn’t convince my 10 and 4 year olds to watch it.

    If you don’t remember, this is the black man who had the cops called on him when he had the audacity to ask a white person to leash their dog in a part of Central Park where dogs are supposed to be leashed. She refused, so he started giving the dog treats, which as someone who used to be afraid of dogs seems like a smart move!! Instead of leashing her dog this entitled person called the police and claimed that the scary black man was threatening her life. He filmed it, of course, since Philando Castile had been shot on camera a few years earlier in Minneapolis. The video went viral. (George Floyd was actually killed later the same day as the dog incident.)

    The caller got fired from her job with an investment firm they next day. She sued to get her job back but the judge agreed with the firm. Mr Cooper wrote a book, and now has a TV show. That’s great news!!
