I’m down at the border now, there are several hundred people sleeping in the cold desert tonight. We have them supplied with water and spaghetti os, but resources are running low. If folks could donate to @BorderKindness it would really help to keep people fed and sheltered
For my birthday month, I'm asking people to make a donation to one of my favorite organizations, @BorderKindness ! They're saving lives in the desert and providing relief to asylum seekers, displaced people, and migrants. Please donate and retweet! Thank you!
Thanks to everyone who donated to @BorderKindness and CASA Collective at our watch party at @AleSmithBrewing today! Thanks to @Sirens_SG for allowing us to partner with their donation drive; a van-full of supplies is ready to aid immigrants living in camps and shelters.
When I wasn’t singing, I was writing essays. When I wasn’t touring, I was studying. When I was touring, I was frantically researching in the backseat of the van. When I wasn’t recording, I was reading.
SHE A GRADUATE Y’ALL
UPDATED ITEM LIST!
There is an urgent need for emergency aid at our border. Sirens would like to support the Border Kindness Water Drop Team and CASA by collecting donations in San Diego which will be distributed to a shelter and crossing areas.

For the last few months I’ve been working on a feature about one humanitarian aid group that delivers water + first aid to migrants crossing the border. I followed @BorderKindness around the desert- story airs tomorrow on NPR’s @morningedition Photos by @ashponders tune in.
Twitter, please help me settle an argument w/my (New York, Italian-American, pit bull dispositioned) mother: she says I “can’t” wear a black kaftan to my baby shower. I obviously disagree (I wear pretty much only black & yes I know I can wear what I want but, you know). Thoughts?
In @SanDiegoMag's Oct issue is this photo essay by James Cordero at @BorderKindness, a local nonprofit that (among other things) hikes into the desert weekly to drop water & other supplies for migrants crossing the US-Mexico border. I wrote the text.
