Am now working on expanded/updated list (adding 50+ names eg Harvard prez and fed judges el al) after Apr 19th 50501 protestors, which I'm now calling protectors [of American democracy and due process]. Will send by paraph when finished in a few days. Appreciate your future help/work. Think it's an important foundational work to inspire others. Thanks much.
Thanks for your work on the list. Not to make your job harder, but maybe categorize the names under headings like "Independent Media," "Higher Education," "Elected Officials," "Judiciary," etc.? Just a thought! Thanks, LT
