...have you been preparing for this task? I have just tried to create a lot of space around my head - which of course is challenging because I live in a family and I have a job. I've kept a notebook with me, just trying to keep track of everything and stop in my tracks whenever possible...

Make sure to eye the back room portraits of the Dalai Lama, Gandhi and Martin Luther King. This space pays strong tribute to U Street's civil rights history, where some of the nation's first protests took place. Pick up some liberally-minded titles (Shoot an Iraqi: Art, Life and Resistance Under the Gun; Tales for Little Rebels) at the bookstore, run by the nonprofit Teaching for Change...
