Minneapolis Bicycle Coalition

Our goal is to make Minneapolis a better place for bicycling in all corners of the city.  We have a track record of success that has helped lead to new bike lanes, new bike parking, the hiring of the first-ever Minneapolis bicycle and pedestrian coordinator, and the hosting of the first-ever Minneapolis Open Streets event.

Back Then But Now

I'm looking at shops that were, and now shops that are. And more importantly, the stories of the people who ran those shops. Change, diversity, immigration & innovation are what's interesting.

Sunny's Side of Life

I'm starting this blog at the Twin Cities Daily Planet because I believe in the importance of sharing our voices. That's a first step to working together.  We might not always agree, but when we share our stories we move forward. We have many, many people counting on us to succeed.

I also want to use this blog as a space to share my experiences with all of you as I go on my journey as a Bush Leadership Fellow this year. A Bush Fellowship provides individuals with opportunities to increase their understanding of, capacity for and practice of leadership to work with others to improve the quality of life in their community.

Learning about the world; learning about ourselves

The Reconciliation Lab

Welcome! This is where I attempt to integrate social psychology research, faith, current events and my own experience as a reconciler. My goal is to demystify cultural divisions in the church (and beyond) and help leaders acquire the skills to overcome them.

Like any other lab, the ideas and findings presented in the RecLab are a work in progress. Further, since reconciliation work is a collaborative process, I invite you to participate in the conversation by sharing your own experiences and constructive feedback.

Peace.

Bicultural Healthy Living

Bicultural Healthy Living is the ability of immigrants and refugees to bridge two cultures, the American mainstream culture and their culture of origin, into one that allows them to live healthfully and happily. By leading a bicultural healthy lifestyle, we hope that Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities can find a path that allow both their Asian/Pacific islander and American culture to co-exist with the ability to use one or both cultural protective factors when needed. This blog will explore the various ways and strategies to improve the health of AAPIs and the community as a whole by living a bicultural healthy lifestyle.
