Alternative Realities

I met Rachel Heisham Bieri in Missoula, Montana, four months after she had been given a terminal cancer diagnosis. She was forty-five then, only fifteen years older than I was, though she was already a grandmother. Doctors had given her two months to live.

We met through a Facebook hiking group and built a friendship based on outdoor adventures and a shared love of barefoot hiking.

Cassandra 2020

Part faux Republican presidential campaign, part art project, with its candidate drawn from Greek mythology, Cassandra 2020 resists categorization.

It has been supported by a constant flux of contributors and co-creators, many of whom are also Quaker.
