Reg. Info Q&A Today, 4/29, 1-2pmET
And a serene photo of a marshland in the middle of Chicago
Welcome back to Lucid, and hello to all new subscribers! Here is the registration link for today’s Q&A, 1-2pmET. There is also a Q&A on Sunday, May 1, 8-9pmET, for paying subscribers only, with Prof. Brooke Harrington, expert on kleptocracy. She qualified as a wealth manager to learn how the ultra-rich, including oligarchs, hide their money. You’ll get a link to register for that one on Sunday afternoon.
Registration for all Q&As is is free and your information will not be used for any other purpose. These are supportive environments and all are welcome. Ask a question or just listen in.
Every Friday I include a photo. If you have a favorite place, send it to me at contact.ruthbenghiat@gmail.com. Let me know if you want to be anonymous or not.
This one, submitted by a Lucid subscriber, is of a marsh in the middle of Chicago. It reminds us that pockets of serenity are everywhere if we seek them out - and sometimes we find them unexpectedly, by taking time to look up from our screens and take in our surroundings.
You probably have your questions ready for today. If possible, I have a question I posed on
Twitter. He's a hero and inspiration. What confuses me, is that 'Navalny' had a thread (reposted by reputable people) imploring financial support for a media company to combat disinformation. I hope he's able to do that. But, he's twice been poisoned by Putin and sits in a prison for years as a means to shut him up. How is he able to get to communicate outside? Is there a scheme with Putin? I feel awful for asking the question, but it's shocking to me that Navalny is free to message things that will ultimately lead to taking Putin down.
A wonderfully serene photo! Thank you!
