Y'all, on this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I'm especially mindful of treating people better. Lately we've seen some very ugly examples of how NOT to do it. 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the federal Fair Housing Act, and it makes me so thankful we have laws to protect vulnerable segments of our population. People who look different and sound different are so interesting to me. I'm totally drawn to explore our differences and celebrate our uniqueness.
